I had that same problem as well until I figured out that maintaining a stable internet/printer box requires installing the minimum default installation, configuring the necessary software (kernel, firewall and samba) and leaving it the hell alone! If you screw around too much with a linux box (especially if you only have a vague idea of what you are doing), it starts behaving like a windows machine. :)

It helps if you keep up with security updates, otherwise it'll *really* start behaving like a windows machine :) Doing that usually means you use a dist that's supported. With 7.3 that won't be a problem for some time yet, but eventually you will need to upgrade.
