Software + Hardwear, i need help!! Options

[Smikey2006]

Hey guys since i know very little regarding recording and home setups i need some help! I currently bought myself Guitar Rig 3 Software via the Internet(so i have no disk i just installed it) and i did the same thing with protools, which i want to use for my recording. My problem lies in the hardware. I have a guitar and i want to hook up the guitar to the computer using a footswitch so i can switch my effects using a stomp box ( this is just my preferance). Even if i cannot achieve this what piece of hardware do i need to hook my Guitar to my computer + what other pieces of hardware would make guitar rig3 work better with my laptop and protools without breaking the bank ( university student = poor )

THANK!
