Always have these three running - anti-virus, anti-spyware, and a firewall.

I'm using Windows Vista and my current combinations are AVG Free for my anti-virus, Microsoft Defender for my anti-spy and Windows Firewall for my firewall. All of these are free to download and use.

The new AVG Free version 8 now has link scanning enabled for browsers (works in Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox) that scans links and flags you if you are trying to access a known hijack site.

Some other suggestions for anti-spyware is Spybot-S&D. Works great in eliminting threats. As for the Firewall, there's Comodo.

Just Google any of these to get the download links.
