Sure, but my XP and 98 boxes are not on a WAN connected network.

This is actually a really good, practical solution. Use the platforms you don't trust, just don't give them internet access. It won't work for every case, but probably a lot of them.

I think I'd get overly frustrated transferring files, but if you have a good solution for that...

Yeah, I occasionally connect a linux laptop on both networks (ipforwarding OFF) with an http port open that exposes my fileserver mounted on the laptop via NFS. If that's too hard, I just pull the hard drives out and connect to my workstation with USB, also good for imaging the machines since they crash so dang often.
