Don't use any routing protocol at all. Actually, skip having your own router too.
Agreed, we ran default static routes for a long time. Y'all don't even need a router. I might recommend a LinkSys 2-port ethernet switch, though. (Control collision domains, See DataComm Warehouse.).
Hm. My main goal is to be able to block stuff from entering my LAN that I don't want there. With a Cisco or Livingston box or something similar, it's just a question of installing filters.
