So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
For quite a few people it's by installing programs like Messenger Plus, 
whose ads for malware don't identify the malware as such and try to convince

Don't ever do a "default" install of anything.  Always choose Custom
and see 
what else is being carried along.  Don't install any extras you're not sure 
of.
