Archived from groups: comp>sys>laptops, others (more info?)

Is there a utility (preferably small, freeware, and non-annoying), or
maybe just a setting in WinXP that I don't know about, that will
automatically turn on a firewall for ANY network device that is later
connected or installed (rather than me having to remember to hit up the
network control-panel to click the advanced tab)?
