microsoft.public.windowsxp.security_admin

I'm a member of a LAN (DSL), and we r connected together through a router. So
anyone on the LAN can easily know others IPs. But i don't know exactly who is
this person and which software he uses, but I think it's "IM Monitor", and he
depends on my IP to spy on my conversations, because he is a member of the
LAN too. And I can't stop him legally, so i wanna use a software that can
help stopping him. Note: I did some steps, but don't know if it helps: 1- I
removed some services like (File and Printer Sharing). 2- I removed (Client
for Microsoft Networks). 3- My Computer is Hidden at (MyNetwork Places) so
nobody can see me at network places, but he is still able to see my IP. 4- I
installed (ZoneAlarm Internet Security).
