Cool, to hear those wise words.
Can your pc be harmed when some spams in your server to knock it off the list of servers?
[By messing up a computer, I am refering to a computer that needs to run the same way everytime, such as a server or media center computer. If you web-surf, by all means keep your computer up to date. ]
I don't think that server crashing can mess anything up. A DoS attack may strain your firewall, but I expect that should be able to handle it too.
I run my server in a 1 GB ramdrive to reduce hard drive wear and tear. It saves a disk image to the harddrive and loads it back at boot up. Seems to work well.
The network issues I have had have been from the cable company, cable modem, firewall, and a loose connection on a cable that I made.
Good Luck
