Oh, that's cool.

I wonder, how could someone ssh into my computer provided that I'm 
behind a router? So my IP is 192.168.0.17 :)  Let's assume that I'm 
running an ssh server (I am) and that a malicious hacker knows my 
username and password. How could he enter my computer if it doesn't have 
an internet-facing IP?

Cheers,
Daniel.
