Here is a checklist for online safety. ( I am not considering you having any problems keeping a record of your IDs and passwords with you in a diary. If you are physically insecure then you have to consider alternate methods of safety)
See that your computer has least one antivirus, one antispyware, one firewall, and one temp files and registry cleaner on your pc. And scan your pc regularly. And run temp files cleaner after end of each browsing session. Apart from that create a limited user account on your pc and use it whenever you want to access internet.Use firefox browser for better protection.
Create longer and strong passwords and change them frequently, at least once in a fortnight. This will provide you the necessary protection you are looking for.
Do not open email attachments in unsolicited mail or in the mail sent from the people you do not know.
1) All kind of security softwares are available for free

Don't give it to anyone.
Don't make it easy. Use numbers and letters.
Don't write it down on a post-it on your monitor.
