I wouldn't place much trust in XP's NT background, hackers say the NT stands for
Nice
Try, and they look for NT servers to break into first. 

Keep in mind MS has admitted they installed a trojan in WinXP, alledgedly so
they
can help you with debugging it remotely. That really doesn't invoke much
confidence in
me, that they went to extra trouble to make it easier on them to fix it after
you buy it.
As with all MS OSs other than dos, run it behind a firewall if you put it
online.
