Identity/proxy troubles

Um… I need some help here.
There is this persistent hacker who has been hacking me for some time now. A friend of mine told me download a software which would veil my IP address so said hacker couldn’t find me anymore. Ok. I did that. (Steganos Internet Anonym 2006).
Now the thing with this software is … just about everything. If I turn on the IP-blocking, none of the pages in my browser open. O.o
None of the other blocking options (like cookies, Java Script, etc.) are switched on, so I think it might have to do with the IP-blocking itself.
I am a total loser when it comes to IP and identity, and I don’t have a clue as to how to use proxy servers.
Does anyone know this software? And if yes, what am I doing wrong? Any tips?
And would this even prevent hackers from finding me and hacking my real IP? I really don’t have a clue.
Well. I know the hacker’s IP, and have put it into the block-list of my firewall. (I have Norton 2005 on Windows XP right now, and last month I used Zone Alarm.)
Yeah. Sorry about the onslaught of questions, but I’m kind of … well. Desperate… and annoyed.
Tips and help would be greatly appreciated.
