5. Patch your computer!
Microsoft Windows Update - http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/
Patch your computer!
That is go to Windows update and download all the patches for your operating system.
Better yet, go into the Control Panel, choose Automatic Updates, Choose Automatic (your screen might look different with a different version of Windows). Make it Every Day at a time when you are not using your computer (say 2 AM).
Generally if you have cable or DSL, despite the risk of infection, computers should be kept on and attached to the Internet. This is to allow antivirus and security patches downloading at off-peak hours.
