This plus common sense is all you need. Seriously there is no reason why anyone should get a virus unless there was some zero-day vulnerability that nothing could stop. And reformatting every few months like that first guy is plain retarded, wtf do you look at on you computer? I haven't reformatted in like almost 2 years and still virus/malware free.
You do realize that a lot of viruses and spyware are silent (harvesters and zombie machines)? And you do realize that even the best anti virus engines out there are like <90% effective at catching most virus payloads when tested by professional companies.
I don't reformat my big machine either. But my son uses it for school and youtube on a limited privilege account. And I don't surf with it.
