Assuming you have a valid copy of XP, be sure to visit Windows Updates and install all critical updates. As suggested use an anti-virus program as well as a decent firewall. Below is a link to a free firewall and AV, there are others if you search for them.

Actually before you go any farther, i would look at Recovery/Backup Software first so that you always have an option in place to go back to earlier setups, even this fresh install point. Saves alot of time and effort!

murr,
What was the mod decision, or can it be discussed? Should we not post links to products - just make a suggestion about a product without providing a link?

Whatever you do, DO NOT mess with Comodo's Anti-Virus tool, it's a disaster, the firewall on the other hand is something I'd recommend.
BTW, no need bringing up the backup issue here, you already have a different thread specifically for that topic.
