Hello,

Yes, it is infact possible to use the IPX protocol on Windows XP Home, if
you really have to. Please refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/814987
on how to use it. Most networks that use IPX are usually business
networks/organizations and in that too most have multiprotocol networks with
TCP/IP and IPX/SPX. I've never seen anyone one wanting to use IPX on a XP
Home machine, most people just stick to the default TCP/IP.

Anyways, the knowledge base article should help you out.
