Some one got into my computer
ok someone started to mess with me online, like hardcore trash talk, then i guess while i was talking to them they got into my system because when i was done and got off line all of my videos, music, tabs, and tutorials had been deleted. so i first went to get zone alarm. but im wondering. should i reload my whole computer since he has been in it. and also where can i get some free virus software and more firewalls. can i have more then one firewall on my computer? if he was in my computer once can he get into any time he wants to now? thanks..

Reformat your hard drive and only install applications which are on CD-ROM. The only problems with this setup is the hackers install Trojan Horses in your files which you want to install back on your computer but you can't or they will hack back in. Learn about securing Windows, your browsers and email for starters and this is only for starters.
