Security I, Browsers.

Now that you know all the types of malware, and what could be the symptoms of it, you are ready to be protected from those programs.

First of all before going into purchasing any anti-virus software, you have to know how to protect your self first and block all of the exploits, because anti-Malware is not enough!

Browsers:

If you are a windows user, especially Internet explorer, go to their browser settings and change the security features to high, for unknown sites, this way unauthorized programs will not run automatically. Plus this will affect all of your browsers since I.E is the main browser in Windows. Then go to your own default browsers ,like chrome, and chose your own customized settings. If you normally go to sites with lots of suspicious activity, like bit torrent websites , than it's the best for you to have this settings adjusted to high.

What Else is Recommended?

• If you are tired of undying pop-ups, then install ad-blocker on your browsers, not recommended for .Com sites, but useful to be protected against harmful script pop-ups.
• Update your browser, old versions are more likely to be attacked/hacked than up-to-date system and browsers. 
• NEVER make a C# or C++ browser and use it as the default one. It's like swim in a lake full of alligators. You will be attacked within seconds. I've tired it it wasn't fun. It's okay to make one, but not to use it as default , you can learn to make one at H&L.
• Remove any toolbar that you don't recognize, they are most likely to be to be Spywares.
