RE: Ask a computer security expert.

I have win7. In it, there's an admin account which I rarely, if ever, use. I always use the "run as administrator" or equivalent to install or do anything adminy.
I also have the free avira AV and use the default windows firewall.
Both the admin and user accounts have passwords.

Is there anything else I should do to increase my security?
