hackers have no magic powers. If you have a router and are not stupid you are totally safe.

forgive me for being thick,,but what exactly can a hacker do? can they just invade your details,because you are open to them?
i currently have ad-aware,and mcafee,is that good enough?

nope.. you're only safe if you have a router.. if not, the only way you will be safe is if you have an operating system other than windows (.ie - linux - unhackable)
and no, you're not thick x :P

No operating system is unhackable. In fact a poor Linux installation is potentially an easily hacked environment.
