Easy answer - just install Linux on your computer (or get a geeky friend to do it for you) and surf on Firefox in Linux with NO worries at all about viruses. Linux is immune to viruses/spyware/malware.

I disagree. If you install the correct security programs and keep them updated, there's no reason why you should get a virus, trojan, spyware etc at all.
And if you ensure that you delete emails from senders with unrecognisable names without opening them, that will keep you safe.
And don't accept transfers via instant messengers unless you're positive that your contact has sent it to you, plus before opening the transfer, you double check with your AV program that there's no virus attached.

if you dont have a good firewall and antivirus and antispyware then yes you will have more virus and trojans & mailware spyware you must keep all ur antivirus & anti spyware upto date dont go on flash player website for games they have virus ready to download on ur pc
Kaspersky internet security suite
avg antispyware
spyware doctor
ad.aware
spywareblaster
lets get that out of ur pc ur some antivirus will miss key keylogger and trojans . frist of all you need to download avg antispyware this is verry good in getting all kinda bad files . then you need to download Adaware
a-squared< is verry good in picking up traking software files that is on the pc and it will find them . then download antispyware blocker that will find any type of virus . trojans files with antispyware blocker when you run that at the top of the box ur see
C:\ WINDOWS
remove the word windows and just leave in
C:\
then hit scan it will search all of the pc every file for virus or trojans and this will not have any problem with ur antivirus you have i have this my self .
then download spyware doctor that will search the pc for even more spyware adaware . just having 1 or 2 antispyware dont cut any ice at all you neeed what i said to download . when you have them run ur pc in safemode and scan the pc with then 1 at a time . this way from safemode the trojan and keylogger cant hide them self coz there is not internet access on in safe mode all the software i said to download will get the trojans and keylogger
if they say some are in the registry you watch what path there in and get in the registry and right hit on that folder and hit remove dont worry when the pc restart up win xp will creat a new clean folder for you

No if you lock down the computer properly, firewall it, turning off
scripting, antivirus, change passwords routinely you should not
get infected.
