Here are some actions you can take:

  1. Install an antivirus program.
  2. Don't open email attachments unless you're expecting them.
  3. Keep your computer updated.
  4. Use a firewall. Windows Firewall (or any other firewall) can help alert you to suspicious activity if a virus or worm attempts to connect to your computer.
