You did not mention your operating system. If you are using XP you have a firewall pre-installed [one way]
Otherwise go to majorgeeks.com select Firewall and scroll to Zone Alarm. Click on name and then download, following prompts. It's free and very good.
I would not spend 10 seconds on the net without one..

when you use photo share you give the person on the other end the opportunity to save the pics you are showing them
what that means is even though you shut down the photo share they were still copying them and it wasn't finished. no one was hacking your computer. its all normal.
