There are lots of online resources - <a href="http://www.habitualindolence.net/masterplan/" target="_blank"> Masterplan</a> and <a href="http://tools.dungeonmastering.com/" target="_blank">DM Tools</a> spring to mind - but personally I use Microsoft Word templates in conjunction with the old offline Monster Builder.

Do you mean you're setting the game in the James Bond universe with guns, fast cars, and all the modern trappings? Or are you simply taking an MI6-like organization and translating it into a standard medieval fantasy D&amp;D world? Assuming the latter, you could look to Zeitgeist for ideas on PCs working for a spy/police organization. 
 
 
Don't see the point in doing that. 
 
 
If your intention is to run a game for a small group of players playing gestalt PCs then go for it. Otherwise I'd encourage all but very experienced players to steer clear of the hybrid rules. 
 
 
Yes! Just make sure not to let any players abuse it; they should have to work to set up Stealth kills, and doubly so if it's a named/elite enemy. 
 
 
That depends entirely on what you want to do...So what do you want to do? I use Photoshop/GIMP, Hexographer, and Campaign Cartographer 3 depending if I want a nice battlemap, and old school hex map, or a world/campaign map.</li>
