Unless you've got lots of external ip addresses (and ISP don't particularly like handing them out) I'd guess you're almost certainly using NAT.

Based on the information you've given in this thread I reckon you're fairly secure without needing software firewalls on the PCs but do they all have up-to-date anti-virus software and does it get run?

yeh they all use Avast and are updated at the beginning of each working day. along with all the windows xp pro system updates.

if the router is dishing out 192.168.*.* or 10.*.*.* ip addresses, then you are using NAT.

it sounds like you have most things covered. try the port scanners to double check
