Hi, we have the internet but are bills are really high because when we are on looking at innocent sites we often get hackers or somebody who is charging us a premium rate without us knowing when we are not even using their sites. Somebody suggests getting a firewall to protect it but I'm scared if I get this it will stop me from being able to down load other things for the computer.is this true? Is there other things I can try?

How are they charging you? Is this bill coming from your ISP?

Are you Charged based on what you download?

Do you have broadband internet connection?

What is the speed/ bandwidth and what is the bill?
