 Im pretty new at using tor and im not sure how safe this program is or how
 to protect my computer & network, I was encouraged by the soft where and
 instructions to set up a bridge which i did briefly, what I did not know
 was that my routers port forwording was set to allow vertial server
 settings, which from what iv read here does not sound
 good__[http://web.belkin.com/support/kb/kb.asp?a=1448

 Im worried that iv just left a big gaping hole for some hacker to have
 highjacked my network and Is now able to use my computer net identity for
 what ever the hell he wants.

 How do you know your being high jacked how do you then get rid of it.
