Viruses are a big mess these days

The best way to protect your computer is to keep Firewall on. Very important is to update your OS regularly to stay safe. But most important is right choice of antivirus program which will keep running in the background checking your files, preventing any unwanted change to happen on your computer. There are many, but I would recommend ESET NOD32 Antivirus 4. To stay protected from Spyware, Malware, Trojans and similar threats, necessary is to get a good antispyware program. The good choice is Superantispyware which will not only detect and remove, but also protect your computer from any unwanted installation. You can also protect home page from being changed without your permission. And one more very important thing is to avoid sharing pen drives. That is the easy way to infect your PC.

An updated version of any antivirus reduces the effects of virus and it can detect any latest virus if found. So it is easy to install a anti virus and to up date it rather you need to change your operating system.
