Most NEO's are detected by satalite and radar usage but some are detected by the usage of telescopes which take pictures of the sky and find moving objects that aren't bright and figure out that they are comets or asteroids or anything that is well near the Earth.

How are Near Earth Object's stopped from hitting Earth?

First, the danger must be detected way ahead of time. Second, something would have to be done to change their orbits. For example, making atom bombs explode on or near their surface has been considered. If detected way in advance, a small change in its direction could take it away from Earth. This is all hypothetical - so far, no Near Earth Object has been thus stopped.
