even the best firewalls and security devices can be broken. take microsoft for instance - every time they have a new system and protect it with new software i.e. a firewall, they hire the worlds best known hackers for lots of money just to see how long it will take to get past the security. nothing is hacker proof, it simply takes time.\n\nbut if you have a good firewall and antivirus etc..... dont worry too much keep it up to date, and as long as you have nothing desireable on your computer im sure no hackers will target you.

the an swear is no the modem, router, or switcher cannot directly be infected, but your network can. if the administrator gets a virus than it could spread by the share section of the operating system depending on what kind of virus. a router is like a firewall in a sense because it gives you a an ip address which is can be encrypted. if the virus attacks the ip address i would recommend resiting the resetting or try to encrypt the router by typing your ip on the explorer bar and follow the instructions provided by the manufacture. if you don't know how to get your ip address go to START then click on RUN, the enter CMD, the ipconfig/all this will show all your configurations.

browse to your linksys through your web browser - login...click on the security tab - on the line that says firewall protection - click on disable...but uhh...i wouldn't recommend that you do that...

As long as the proxy server is behind the firewall router you will not get out.  It is most likely settings in the router/gateway to the Internet that blocks you.  The only thing that you can probably do is find a computer that is not blocked out from using the internet (usually when I set up routers to block I use an IP or mac address if I am not blocking everybody).

Some things are better learned through experience.  Besides, all firewalls are not the same.  If you want to be a 'hacker', this is not the right starting point.

It's never a good idea to disable your firewall, you will be risking getting trojans and worms. If you are using nortens or McAfee you can disable them by right clicking on their icon in your task bar...if you are using windows security click on start- click on all programs- then click on accessories-then highlight system tools the next box you will see windows security..u can disable it there...but beware you will put your computer at a great risk by doing so.

As far as invating your computer. I would recommend you use a cable router. this will put a firewall between the main. Network and your computer. Not as far as seeing what your doing not much you can do there. if someone really wants to see what sights your going to any packet sniffer can do that. Other then that there is no other way.

You are going to have to hire a tech.to help you set up firewalls and install equipment to prevent such things.It is very hard to set it up to truly keep good hacks out.Good Luck

modify the firewal's settings if it's on your pc\nif the firewall is on a server you must ask the admin to do that \nBYE

Use a router that will mask your IP it will be harder for anyone to get also use firewalls! If someone is stilling your passwords then you might be keylogged (hijacked)! Run a scan change your password and make it long use number's, symbols, upper and lower case letters and do not save it to your computer! save all your info to a note pad so if someone takes your account you will have it! And save it in a folder of a fold the harder you hide it the better! But remember where you put it! write it down to just to make sure you have it in case your computer goes down save it to a disk that only you will know where you put the disk! There are a number of things you can do! If you notice your computer acting up doing things your not doing yourself unplug your telephone line if you on dial up, unplug your cable to your modem if your on cable or dsl and if they are in your computer and you do this it will fry their computer! and if your on Dali up your ip should change on its own. If on cable or dsl there are ways to change your ip there to! Good Luck and get some protection!

You can't if he has it blocked on the firewall server, the only way you can bypass it is get a proxy server address or get to the internet from a machine in the DMZ.

do you use a wireless router?  if so you can stop ppl from useing your internet.  do you have a folder saying shared folders under my computer? if so what ever is in that folder is being shared with who ever has access to you pc.  do you have a security system, such as macafee or nortons?  if not i would get one asap. i prefer nortons.  yes i agree you are probably hacked. you van look at my net work places under my computer, and try going to tools under my computer and click disconnect network drivers then shut down and see what happens.  i really dont know. good luck

You can disable the firewall temporary or you can put it in the allow list to pass by...I am not sure what type of firewall you run but its best you just disable it until you finish downloading it...
