    Pretty basic information that, so I see no other reason for the post.


    1) Install Anti-Virus Software


    er... the majority of anti virus software is now that bloated, you are just going to slow down your computer.

    Windows Defender is now a very adequate antivirus software that will catch the majority of problems. No need for 3rd party antivirus unless you think you have a problem.

    Other tools you should have in your arsenal and run regularly though.

    Malwarebytes Antimalware

    ADW cleaner

    I used to recommend cccleaner but as they now force Avast anti virus onto you I only recommend older versions. Anything less than 5.32 will probably be good.

    2) Keep Your Anti-Virus Software Up to Date.
    see above.


    3) Run Regularly Scheduled Scans with Your Anti-Virus Software.

    Run windows defender scan, and malwarebytes scan regularly.


    4) Keep Your Operating System Current

    Don't update to windows update 1809 - it can potentially wipe some of your files.


    5) Secure Your Network

    Yep - basically change your routers default password if its old.

    6) Think Before You Click

    Use ad blocker - popups are where most viruses come from.

    Use an anti miner chrome extension - no coin, minerblock
