Hey folks:

a person i know really freaked me out when i was told my ip address has been compromised. in fact he mentioned hackers are attacking thru my ip address as they already have entered my computer system. i m quite lame in technology and he suggested me to have linux as OS than my window vista OS.

i had not noticed any problems excepts that my internet cable get disconnected from time to time as i am sharing the cable of the house owner.

please suggested me if i should have linux as an OS for like i mentioned i m not tech savvy person.

Thanks in advance.
