    Use a router that will mask your IP it will be harder for anyone to get also use firewalls! If someone is stilling your passwords then you might be keylogged (hijacked)! Run a scan change your password and make it long use number's, symbols, upper and lower case letters and do not save it to your computer! save all your info to a note pad so if someone takes your account you will have it! And save it in a folder of a fold the harder you hide it the better! But remember where you put it! write it down to just to make sure you have it in case your computer goes down save it to a disk that only you will know where you put the disk! There are a number of things you can do! If you notice your computer acting up doing things your not doing yourself unplug your telephone line if you on dial up, unplug your cable to your modem if your on cable or dsl and if they are in your computer and you do this it will fry their computer! and if your on Dali up your ip should change on its own. If on cable or dsl there are ways to change your ip there to! Good Luck and get some protection!

    Download an Internet Security Package.

    Use updated antivirus and firewall progs.

    There are some progs in internet which let you hide your IP number; this prog is generally used by hackers.

    Why is it important to hide your IP address?

    The information on your computer should belong only to you & in order to maintain its privacy you need to keep the IP address hidden so that all information will become unknown to all hackers as well as websites that track the number of your visits & collect information every time.

    Hiding IP address will disable such parties to detect your identity & penetrate your privacy online because information available to them is totally different from what you have so no traceable evidence will be left behind.

    i've got in many circumstances happening a pair of individuals who've killed themselves and the subject is extra durable to describe. They regarded regular on the exterior so while it occurred it grow to be a finished ask your self. the terrific component to do is to ask and be a pal. If i ought to turn back time, and lend an open ear or hand, i could completely do it. in specific situations you merely never understand what's happening in somebody's head till that's too overdue, yet I wouldnt call them emotionally vulnerable interior the least. in specific situations human beings merely get in a hollow so dark the place there is not any optimism, the place there is not any easy on the top of the tunnel and that they do no longer grow to be vulnerable, they only grow to be uninterested in dealing. dealing with melancholy takes power, no longer in straightforward terms that, yet some human beings use substance abuse which makes it worst.
