I think he must've installed a keylogger on your system and thats how he got your passwords and all .. Get your pc checked by a good antivirus ...I'll suggest Kaspersky's Active Virus Shield .. Its free and very effective ..
Then you should install a firewall .. Here I'll recommend Comodo Personal Firewall ..

Does anything special needs to be done for setting up the firewall? and how to detect trojans? I read somewhere that AVs cant detect all trojans and need some special trojan removers etc. [rootkit and stuff like that :-/]
