Yep, thats what I would recommend. Go get a good firewall (Zone Alarm works, I use Sygate), install it, and make sure it starts with the computer. This is especially necessary in an environment like a college, where there are lots of machines that are not well maintained. I cant tell you how many times the network here at school has been brought to a crawl by someone putting an infected computer onto it... And I sit there and watch all the attempts to infect my machines bounce right off the firewall.
