Mode of accessing internet: Wireless Card and Normal Ethernet Card
Host interface 1: Broadcom 802.11b/g Network Adapter
Host interface 2: Generic Marvell Yukon 88E8042 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller
Situation: I can connect to Internet by Wireless card

Guest: OS: XPSP3

Basic internet in the Guest is done through NAT. Set it, and you're done. Doesn't matter if internet goes through wire or through the air (wireless).

Is it in danger of virus to the host if I select to let guest to go to internet through NAT? Can the host be scanned and found by hackers if the host wireless network card is in status of having connected to internet?

Thanks.
