Turn it off for a while may help. Some people tried to ping into your machine. If you turn your machine off, they would ping to other machine.

Since you are using Safari, you may use Mac. Then, you can change the setting of the build-in firewall to reject all.

For strong protection, you may check something called VPN, cryptography software etc. If your ISP got VPN service, you should enroll into it; then all communication of you via your ISP would be encrypted. No one could get the real information except you and your friends. You should encrypt some important files.

However, encryption got problems: you need to change keys periodically and re-encrypt your files again.

You may check on http://www.infosec.gov.hk to get some basic hints.
