First off - your email program is important - Ive found that Eudora is the easiest to protect - and what everybody said about preview panes - dont use them
I use BitDefender antivirus - it allows you to monitor anything trying to write to the registry - and although it can be a small pain when you are installing software, its the best at stopping trojans and iframe exploits. And a heck of a lot cheaper than Norton
Lavasoft adaware is a daily function here - of course its important to get the updated library as they come out almost every day
Last - use cwshredder and hijackthis any time you even think you might have gotten infected with adware - always D/L the newest version (theyre both free and updated almost daily) and you can keep clean - Ive had some pretty bad infections in the past and this is just a culmination of what ive gone to.
BTW - those last two programs have never failed to remove any kind of hijack Ive had and Ive recommended it to others here and it has always worked with the newest version.
