First, make sure you have up-to-date antivirus software installed on your computer and keep it running at all times. Second, avoid clicking suspicious links or downloading files from unknown sources. Third, use strong passwords for your online accounts, and change them regularly. Finally, if you suspect that your computer has been infected, run a scan with your antivirus software and remove any malicious programs detected.
