+1 on the Malwarebytes. They have a free version but I ended up buying it on one of my machines and I have never had a problem. .
Good recommendations!
If you are really concerned and really want to go all out, the best thing you can do is never visit sites other than your brokers and perhaps a few others. If you visit certain categories of sites, i recommend you reboot before using your brokers site.
If you trade big $, you might be wise to have a computer dedicated to your brokers site alone.

Why not Microsoft Security Essentials? Updated all time with new definitions!
IMO a trading system should be dedicated to trading.
No e-mail, browser, etc.
Just trading.
Yep . just clean OS install and components that are needed to run the platform. And put this pc on separate network(read about cascading routers)
I switched to this after I kept catching viruses using a big name vendor (including one on my newer 64 bit system). Found the virus using the Microsoft Security Scanner, which I use every week or so, dumped my old, basically worthless protection, and began using Security Essentials (which is free), which quarantined the culprit, and I haven't looked back. Essentials doesn't slow my system down either. I also occasionally scan with Malwarebytes free version.
On an earlier XP system, I caught the re-direct...big PAIN!!!! Finally found that one with Kaspersky free scanner.
