I keep seeing all these posts that someone can hack my wallet.  First I did not think that this could be done?  If it can be done, how can I prevent it from happening?  Does my wallet need to be online in order for them to be able to hack it or can they still hack a paper wallet?

No one can hack a paper wallet, but if you keep your bitcoin at a webite that holds the private keys then yes you could lose the bitcoin.  the bitcoin is not yours unless you hold the private keys......  Smiley
