support.

AV is only part of the security picture - it will do no good if your
system's not patched or up to date, so take a look at these freebies too...
1) Ensure WindowsUpdate is set to update your system
2) Download a pop-up blocker - eg toolbar.google.com
3) Install Lavasoft AdAware and run regular scans, or just leave it and
have it handy for when problems start recurring.
4) Keep your AV software up to date - daily updates recommended.
www.clamwin.org and
www.grisoft.com are good free ones...
Also, check this link for some free, limited-time trials of commercial
products -

5) Enable Internet Connection Firewall, or use ZoneAlarm if you don't use
XP
6) Stay vigilant. Don't bother opening non-work related email attachments,
or install an on-access virus scanner so that it doesn't matter if you do.
7) Look at a host IPS - eg
www.prevx.com,
www.abtrusion.com, System Safety
Monitor to cover your machine between when a virus hits the wild and when a
patch is finally released that fixes it. Average time is roughly 6 days.
8) Take an online privacy test

9) Set IE Privacy to High - IE > Tools > Internet Options > Privacy
10) Reset Internet Zone Security to High - IE > Tools > Internet Options >
Security > Custom > (Select High) > Reset
