I've done computing a long time and I'm not sure I know what a "booter bot" is.   In any case, installing a firewall should prevent most people from access your computer.  My favorite firewall is Zone Alarm.  www.zonealarm.com\n\nMike Honeycutt

You can send Yahoo request to remove address from the block list or you can switch IP providers, if you are using one that is clueless about open relays and spam hosting, you will be blocked alot.

try using an anonymizer or anonymouse.org if that dont do it, its hard to say without have access to firewall control.

try using a proxy, or try the program hide ip, do a search for them..

Yes, the only thing you can do is try to filter out as many proxies as possible but those keep changing. I do not know how your network(s) are configured but can you block port 80 for the offending users?

get one of their emails - look at the header information, find the source IP address and type that into an IP "who is" search - thsi is very brief but have a search on the Internet there are plenty of site to give help

well, you can netstat them while sending them a file .... best to make it a large file so that you have time to determin which connection is theres...

This person doesnt need your messenger anymore. More then likely if you ever had even a single conversation with her. She pinged you to find out your IP. You say you have a firewall, but more then not firewalls are not too hard to get around. Your best bet is a router. Your attacks are probabaly coming through an open port as well. You need to do a port scan and see where your vunerabilities are coming from. Secondly, I will tell anyone if you want to avoid attacks a router is the best way to go. A firewall will at most kinda of block a person to get through the wall. But with the right trick and coding the computer can be tricked into thinking the attack is a friendly or ok item to let pass. and boom your in. \n\nSomehow get your IP address changed, if you have to call your ISP and have that done. If your attacks are still going then you have to get more drastic, but more then likely she will not be able to link again as long as you dont communicate with her. A instant message gives her a direct link to you, all she has to do then is ping ya.\n\n----------------\nAs I see things has already been sent to you as an answer. Firewalls are not going to be your answer. Oh yeah and another thing ZoneAlarm is the absolute worst firewall program out there on the internet, next to BlackIce... Zonealarm is hacked way to easily. .. you dont have to take my advice.. but i have fixed many a freinds computers after they had been done in even while using ZoneAlarm.

most probably nope. The proxy server nowadays are quite intelligent in doing the blocking.\n\nUnless you can find a higher priviledge user id..

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!

Simply removing them from the DHCP table will not kick them off the internet. DHCP or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides an address to a client (host) when it first connects and then periodically there after. Just removing the entry from the table does not remove the address from the client.\n\nFor security, use one or more of the other security options mentioned in an earlier answer.

Just use your Yahoo "spam" key. It will block that IP from sending to you again and reports it to Yahoo. Many complaints for the same offending IP from other users and Yahoo blocks them and in some cases reports them to proper authority's.

You can see the others IP Address when sending a file in MSN for example, you just need to execute:\n\nSTART, RUN, CMD, "c:> netstat -a"

There are several ways to do this depending on the program. If you want him not to be able to access your email, change your password and dont give it to him.  Whatever forwarding service he is using will have to have a log in.

Tell them to go to www.whatismyip.com or go to command line and type ipconfig
