If this is a real post,

there are certain things that you can do to protect yourself.

1) update you antivirus software and run a full scan of your system.
if you do not have a antivirus program... go to http://www.grisoft.com/html/us_index.htm and download this very good free anti virus program.

2) use a software firewall... if you don't have one.. download the free version of zonealarm from:
http://www.zonelabs.com/

this will prevent him/her from accessing your computer.

3) go to http://www.majorgeek.com/index2.html and download their free program called ad-aware 5.71.
this will remove any spy-ware that is on your systm.

4) go to: http://www.finjan.com/
and down load SurfinGuardŽ Pro 5.7 - Beta.
SurfinGuardŽ Pro protects PC users from new, unknown Internet threats by monitoring and containing the behavior of downloaded progams and active content. SurfinGuard Pro runs active content (e.g., executables, ActiveX, scripts, Windows scripting files and Java) in a protected "sandbox" called the Safe Zone that automatically blocks potentially hostile actions.

5) all of this combined will help stop the hacking... there are other steps that you can take... but this is enough for now.

hope this helps...

You got hacked through instant messenger? You do know there are a lot of security holes that are easy to violate. You need to restrict File Sharing and Transfering or else he'll probably do it again to you.

Hack him to teach him a lesson? Maybe we should all hack you!!! Two wrongs does not make a right dude, and if you got hacked you probably deserved it for being a jerk. Maybe you should learn to be nice to people and not run your mouth like a lot of the other folks on the net.
