Thanks Mark. I'm on a LAN (DSL), and we r connected to the internet through a
router. and he depends on my IP to spy on me. I installed ZoneAlarm Security
Suite, can it help?

No.

The packets are being read from the wire. Firewalls can't help. Once you send data ontp the LAN anyone can read it.
If you could encrypt the traffic it would stop it but MSN doesn't support that AFAIK.

Why not go and tell him to quit doing it or report him, assuming it is a workplace and it is unauthorised snooping.
