How can I protect myself from viruses and Trojan horse programs?

Computer Viruses

Install anti-virus internet security software from a well-known, reputable company, UPDATE it regularly, and USE it regularly or it won't do your information security any good. New viruses come out every single day; an information security program that hasn't been updated for several months will not provide much protection against current viruses.
