vpn or a different solution?
hello,

i have a bit of problem with somebody who knows my ip address, and they keep sending something to my computer (flooding or something)

they kill the chat program i use, and sometimes completely kill my connection..

im using the normal windows firewall with windows 7..

i have done a bit of reading and i wondered if setting up a vpn would prevent them from getting my ip address, but im not sure how to do this..

can anyone suggest anything that might be able to prevent them from doing this?

thanks..

RE: vpn or a different solution?
VPN is used for completely different purpose than this. If they have found your IP address, the best line of defense is a firewall and Intrusion prevention system. A firewall should be able to block this easily.

Also, if you know the IP address trying to hack you. You can complain to the their ISP about it.
