Details, please.

Find you, how? Wireless, wired? What are the symptoms? What's in the log?

I would have to say you need to reformat your hard drive.

Okay, maybe that is extreme. But you need to start by running a solid malware cleaning.

"Finding" you is easy, but the router isn't the key. Your computer is probably infected and acting like a beacon if they keep "finding" you.

Lock down your router, change the password, the router name, the WAN MAC address, and ensure you have a new IP address when you release.

Enable its firewall features, disable remote access, and make sure you're denying ping and all traffic from the WAN. You should have a "deny all from WAN *" type rule.

AVG Free, Microsoft Security Essentials, TrendMicro Housecall are all good scanners which should go as far as detecting rootkits and deeply rooted malware. They're also free and no one should have any excuse for not running AV protection these days.

Stop downloading unclean pr0n. Only get your pr0n from reputable sites.

First of what makes you think hackers keep finding you. Give us very specific examples of what makes you think this. We'll take it from there.
