And they are so easily kept out with just a few well thought out
strategies:

1. Keep your OS patched.
2. Use a properly configured firewall.
3. Keep a close eye on what you open and download.
4. Either chuck Internet Explorer completely, or run it on it's highest
security settings. My preference is the former, since IE on it's highest
settings is almost useless. Other browsers are not nearly as vulnerable as
IE is.
5. Use a good, up to date AV program.
6. Keep up to date on what's going on.
