Since we can chat now, how does one find the root drive or anything else that may have been accessed by someone very undesirable. I certainly wouldn't want any of these guys to have my address etc.

How you go about detecting pc invasions depends upon your nerd capabilities and level of paranoia? I'm constantly looking for changes. I addition to my firewall, I run Spybot, Adaware, JV16 Power Tools (for registry changes), RB Killer, and Spyware Blaster. Because I'm always monitoring my system, I have a greater chance of picking things up more often than not because things don't look right.
