Google is your friend. Use it. It's somewhere in your router's settings, exactly how to activate it depends on your individual router.

Probably no, because it opens your port, letting you receive everything coming from the internet, even malicious software. makes your computer 100% vulnerable.

Now that is utter bull. I have had my computer is DMZ for 5 years now and I have never had "malicious software" randomly appear. People get viruses etc because they are stupid enough to run programs they shouldn't be.
