1. an 'anti-hacker' program is called a firewall. It prevents unauthorised machines connecting to your computer and damaging it, and can also prevent malicious software 'phoning home' with your credit card details to its creator. I use Comodo: http://personalfirweall.comodo.com/ Anti-spyware software finds spyware on your computer and removes it. Spyware is software which installs itself surreptitiously on your computer and collects your details. I use Spyware Terminator (turn off web security guard): http://www.spywareterminator.com/ Spybot: http://www.safer-networking.org/ (use immunise feature) Superantispyware: http://www.superantispyware.com/ Make sure you have anti-virus: Avira: http://www.free-av.com/ (if you don't have anti-virus, or if you have Norton or AVG replace it with this)
