The solution was "Don't run as Admin"
That was only one of the things I tried, but it didn't stop them. I have to create a new user account about once a month nowadays to keep everything working ok. Apparently there is software nowadays which allows them to crash through any firewall. A while back I had a bad feeling about the Australian census when it came up. I sent away for the paper census forms and wasn't surprised when hackers crashed the system. I can't go online without the feeling that someone is always looking over my shoulder.
I also eventually figured how to get down into the registry to block a few remote hacking attempts.
You've got to laugh.
