Right click the "Local Area Connection" Icon and select properties, when the properties GUI opens check the box that says "show icon in notification area when connected", but as the others have said, as long as you have Windows firewall switched on and a good quality router you will be reasonably protected.
With out getting too involved most modems and routers have a firewall and NAT.
What modem and what router do you have?
