No, I never do that. Don't run any antivirus either. I only run windoze in a VMware or VirtualBox virtual machine under linux, and only use it for exactly three things -- the Sony Reader library software (and yes, I also use Calibre under linux, it works great, but I still need the Sony crapware), my interface for my Procyon light/sound machine, and a piece of somewhat expensive windoze software called "Mind Workstation". I've now actually got the Procyon software working with linux Wine, but the other two won't. So I need to use XP for those. No problem getting those to work -- what's wrong with the reader library? Does it need a port opened?
