I have a 4 port router connected to the NTL STB, which feeds my pc and both my housemates pc's, leaving 1 port free.

I want to set up a file server for mp3's on a spare machine, but don't want to let this machine have internet access of any kind.

What is the best way to do this, so that I can access this machine from my pc and my housemates can access it via their machines, but keeping it from having net access?

All the machines are running Win XP Pro.
