    There is a very helpful sticky on this forum called "How to Protect yourself from malware!" authored by Chaslang. See http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=44525 It appears that it has not been updated since 2004.

    I have a clean (I like to think) fairly new Windows 7 computer, and I want to keep it clean. Are there any new suggestions that supersede what is in Chaslang's old thread?

    Very untrue. You are looking at the creation date, not the update date. See the end of the post where you will see:

    Thank you so much for correcting me -- I was looking for an update date, but didn't see it. I couldn't believe it hadn't been updated, because you are so thorough. I appreciate your quick response and all your invaluable help!
