Hacked off here - any point spending any money on a VPN?

I use https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/
works well, does not seem to affect my download speed.
A couple of quid a month to have private surfing seems reasonable.
I think it depends exactly what your problem is. A VPN is to hide who you are from people who may be watching, for whatever reason (). It wont stop a virus or any spyware in most cases, because you yourself have navigated to where the spyware is so you found it. Does that make sense?
I don't use a VPN yet, but I've been thinking about it lately. All my usenet traffic is encrypted, so when I'm being a naughty pirate they can't tell what my pr0n preferences are, but they can still see I was doing 'something'.
Thanks for replying - in case you were not already aware I am a buffoon. So..will this stop my computer from being hacked/taken over?
