Have a good antivirus and malware detector and deleter handy.

That sounds much easier than it actually is.
Luckily, my computer warns me when something being downloaded is a virus (or malware, both). Some people who have older computers that didn't come with this software aren't fortunate enough to know exactly what should be downloaded for this task.
I would never go online and search for virus-protection for the exact reason it probably gives you one.
