Many good advices, but I’m missing a very important one: Use a firewall that also offers outbound protection.
I would stay away from Vista for a while.

In the passed Microsoft had to issue the first service pack before the major bugs were taken care of. I would stay with XP Pro atleast for the next year.

Take a hammer in one hand and use the other hand as aiming support. Once that step is done, you whack your PC until it no longer works.

Download an antivirus program. Be smart and don't use shady software and don't visit shady websites.
Nothing else will free you from virii.
