YOU Telecom provides broadband over cable. The other vendors in this area are Hathway, Sify, etc.

The other types of ISP are thos which provide telephony based BB - over fixed landlines or Wireless (Wi Max).

Generally speaking telephony based services are better than cable services.

There are quite a few simple tips:

a) Change router password
b) Change BB user password
c) If using wi-fi, implement wi-fi security
d) Implement strong passwords everywhere (at least 10 chars long with a good mix of uppercase/lowercase letters, numerals, special characters, etc.)
e) Check usage regularly and report any unknown activity
f) Install good AV software and get regular updates

etc.

And a firewall will help stop intrusions while you surf the internet. You can get a free one like zone alarm or use a trail from avg or something similar but dont rely upon windows OS inbuilt firewall as its a load of crap and is easy to breach in my opinion.
