Well, if we're talking only a single computer altogether, then making sure you don't have any services that aren't being used installed, and make sure the ones that are being used are both properly configured and patched in an intelligent manner should really cover your bases. If it's a home box with no services to the outside world, you can pretty much remove all services but the MTA, reconfigure the MTA to not listen outside of localhost and learn a little iptables to close everything off that isn't originating from the box or related to an existing connection. -- .''`.
