Securing/Locking down Windows 2000 server

I need same guidance in securing/locking down my windows 2000 server. My server is located in a data center/colocation and is accessed only via Terminal Services. Terminal Services is the only service I use on this server. Currently there is no firewall protecting my server. What do I need to do to protect myself?

Also you can Click Start --> Run --> services.msc <ENTER>
You can look through your services started and stop any that you do not need to use. Also disable the services you are not using.
