Use AdAware and the Microsoft spyware killer (no, honestly, as far as I know it's pretty good) as well as Spybot S&D. Leave IE alone, just don't use it, and set your default browser to be Firefox.
There is some malware that nobody knows how to remove at this time, particularly some variants of CoolWebSearch.
Most of this stuff comes from visiting sites that plant malware on you. Don't go to websites to download MP3s - as other people have said, use a client, which is fairly safe. (But don't just double click on anything you get, go to your music player and open it from there instead. If it sounds like garbage, delete it, it's either corrupt, malware or a virus.)
One would hope that your IT department already have virus checkers but if not, use the free version of AVG. |
