Why do you think you are under attack?
Agree with the two AV comment.
Nevertheless, you should run a firewall. ZoneAlarm or PCTools both have a good free one. I don't usually recommend it to novice people because it asked questions about outbound connections that non-techies have a hard time answering. The paid for versions ask less questions. However in your case you have concern and you want to know about everything in or out so I'd recommend you install a strong firewall to start to understand whats going on.
