9 steps to protect your computer from getting infected from spyware (including keylogger trojans) an 

  1. Use antivirus and spyware software and keep the definitions updated
  2. Install security patches (for Windows XP and specific software)
  3. Use a firewall
  4. Avoid opening email attachments from unknown senders
  5. Utilize Internet Explorer security zones
  6. Treat IM suspiciously (eg opening attachment, clicking everything, etc)
  7. Avoid P2P filesharing (all are rife with Trojans, viruses, worms, adware, spyware, and every other form of malicious code imaginable)
  8. Keep abreast of Internet scams (especially email masquerading as a security concern from your bank or other eCommerce site)
  9. Don’t fall victim to virus hoaxes
