Hi,

Few things you should probably do.

First of all protect your computer with personal firewall. If you have
operating system that does not have one built in, you can use any free one
that you feel comfortable with (e.g. www.sygate.com).

Next thing you should do is make sure that you have all the latest patches
installed on your computer. Go to www.windowsupdate.com and make sure...

After you have done this first steps, make sure your antivirus is up-to-date
with the latest definitions and check your computer one more time.
