What can a hacker/malicious person do with just an IP address?

Asked by Fred931 (9434points) January 22nd, 2010

I sometimes become a bit worried as to what could happen if my IP were to somehow be known by anyone except myself. Shouldn’t good enough computer security programs prevent anything bad from happening?
