Are you using IE or Outlook/OL Express? They are both high risk
programs for exploits. If you have highspeed internet you probably
have a static IP address that's an easier target than the rolling IP
addresses of dialup. How do you know it's the same intruder? Same
footprints of exploits?

Also, I know this is a windows ng, but Linux is a more secure OS.

How, exactly, do you know this?

Without knowing what you are actually describing, it's hard to say. There
are a number of ways.

Keep in mind that you are describing a serious criminal offence. You may
wish to consult your local law enforcement agency if you feel you are the
target of attack. And they cannot help you if you do not tell them.
