just because your firewall detects a inbound packet or something it considers to be an attack does NOT mean you are getting hacked. you probably just have a virus or a spybot infection on your computer.

Although your ports are blocked they might still be visible. In which case the hacker knows you are there and will keep on trying. Make sure your firewall shows stealth in all options here:
The aim is for the hacker to not even know you exist. He might then take you off his search (eventually).
Otherwise, if someone is prepared to keep trawling then short of a shot gun there's not a lot you can do.
