Not sure exactly what you mean, but if you suspect someone is currently remoted into your laptop, then turn it off.

Ctrl+Alt+Del -> Users tab -> Disconnect if you know the person and just playing. however xp doesn't support multiple sesions by default so i guess the other user will be automatically kicked if you log in. it's better to change to a secure pasword otherwise. and if you don't really use remote desktop, just turn that thing off dude. stray requests come to my computer always so i just turned the "use only users with network level authentication" and I have a Mac ID radius filter on my router taht lets teh port forward only for certain mac ID's

How did he manage that? Are you using a wireless broadband connection? You need to enable your software and/or hardware firewall. The wireless connection you are using does not seem to be secure, which is why someone has been able to connect to your computer. It is a common problem seen in laptop users who connect to a free wifi hotspot. You should install a software hardware. There are plenty of free firewall programs (http://www.filehippo.com/software/firewalls/). I recommend Sunbelt-Kerio simply the easiest firewall I ever used. There are a number of articles you can read on how to secure your connection.
