If you don't already have virus\spyware protection TheParentsEdge recommends Kaspersky lab. Personally, I have used Nortons, Mcafee, and recently trend Micro. Kaspersky has beat them all hands down. The other 3 are good but Kaspersky is simply better when it comes to stopping viruses and spyware. Do not let yourself go unprotected online.
