    Here are some great tools to help you keep from getting infected again. These tools use little or no resources so won't slow down your PC.

    To prevent unknown applications from being installed on your computer install WinPatrol 2008

    Another thing I would suggest installing SiteAdvisor. SiteAdvisor rates sites on business practices and spam.

    SpywareBlaster - Secure your Internet Explorer to make it harder for these ActiveX programs to run on your computer. Also stop certain cookies from being added to your computer when running Mozilla based browsers like Firefox.
    * Using SpywareBlaster to protect your computer from Spyware and Malware

    UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!! - If you do not have automatic updates enabled then visit http://www.windowsupdate.com[/b]]http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer.
