Re: *sigh* hacked, where do I go from here?

There HAS to be a way to just make your primary computer un-hackable.

Never turn on. Not what you wanted to hear, but it's true. You will never be hack safe when playing online poker.
I would be careful what I download from what source and watch how they install the files.
Don't download everything and anything off of file sharing apps.
You got these but good to review, virus checker (scan real time all files, not just certain extensions), firewall (this is okay, but not required as a virus checker is), pick hard to figure out passwords (have letters, numbers, symbol combination), lock computer after you use it, do not let others on the same account, I create a different user account that has very limited access to files on my computer, never write down your password on paper or in a document that isn't encrypted (there are even better ways to do this).
I would change passwords at least once a year if not more.
Hopefully at least somethings to think about.
