I just got a good tip from a buddy of mine that is a computer whiz....

"when you are not on it for a long period of time disconnect the wire. because if you don't, the hacker needs an achor to work from and if your system is on it can be used as an anchor."

"Can they hack me if I'm active on the computer? or do they have to wait til there is no internet activity?"

"yes unfortunately they can while you are on. But most hackers will realize when they do that your system starts acting funny (like it did before all this happen, but not neccessrily been hacked)"

I hope this info helps.
