yes, look for anything 'extra' that has been added to your computer and network/router (cards, in-line things plugged into various connectors) and identify that everything is there. if you are truly paranoid about this, then i suggest a full re-install after doing a complete wipe of the hard...

i have tried it several times and it has failed most of those times. try 11 & 95
