Hi malware fighters,
This is a link that we should give to people that we helped cleansing their machines from a malware infection, entitled: “How did I get infected in the first place?” from the Dutch malware expert Tony Klein:

Lots of what he states there is still very actual and useful info that should be passed on to general users.
There is some new advice we can add, like installing a program like Secunia PSI (RC4) to check you have all critical updates and patches to the software you use. How to update sun java and remove older still vulnerable versions.
How to enhance your security with the right browser add-ons for instance for the Firefox browser.
