Answer 1

If you are using XP. Go into windows security center through the control panel and turn on the firewall. That should prevent outside attacks. You can also go into internet options under internet explorer and raise your privacy and security settings.  

Answer 2

disable guest account, change admin account name and password protect your computer then no one can access it unless you leave it unlocked

Answer 3

Try using firefox to connect to router. Good article on fire fox at http://imperviouscomputer.com
