"Answer C is correct. Enabling Windows Firewall on the host computer is all the administrator needs to do on a network that is already configured and running properly. Answers A and B are incorrect because routers, DSL, and cable modems are not requirements of Windows Firewall.. Answer D is incorrect because Windows Firewall should not be installed on computers that are not directly connected to the Internet."

It should read:

"Answer D is correct. All computers should have Windows Firewall enabled, even if there is another firewall protecting them from Internet attacks.

The next time the infected computer connects to the internal network, the worm could spread to the other computers if they do not have a firewall running. A and B are incorrect because routers, DSL, and cable modems are not requirements of Windows Firewall."
