Can I avoid PAK_Generic.001 from coming into the system

[Santy]

I need to know that can I avoid PAK_Generic.001 from coming into the system. I am using Windows Vista operating system with Quick Heal antivirus and my browser is Mozilla Firefox. When the infection enters into the system, the antivirus helps to get rid of it, but I cannot understand how it actually gets into the system while I am surfing the web. If anyone knows any technique to prevent it from entering the computer, please do reply.

Take caution while clicking on suspicious links on web pages and you can avoid PAK_Generic.001 from coming into the system. The attackers put a very good caption to the link on the web pages so that many users can be attracted to it. You must be alert and avoid clicking on such suspicious links. If you click on it, the infections will easily gain entry into the system.

I suggest you to protect the Windows account with strong passwords to avoid PAK_Generic.001 from coming into the system. You have to use a combination of alphabets, numbers and symbols. This is because some infections are used by the attackers to gain unauthorized entry into the users system. If the password will be strong, the attacker fill find it impossible to break the same.
