Scan daily. 2) Be careful when downloading programs from the WWW (internet), scan when the download is complete, better to kill it before it can infect your computer. 3) Keep your computer Operating System and all programs updated with the free patches that come out periodically. 4) Have a firewall between you and the WWW. The stronger the better.
