I have been using the internet for last four years and everything worked fine. However, until four months ago, I could not defend from all sorts of viruses, spywares and adwares. I reinstalled Windows several times but it did not help me for a long. After a day or two on the Internet, I have the same problems again. Now I have different kind of spam in my Inbox. Are there any better browsers than IE?

Of course, there are other browsers beside the Internet Explorer. Some of the most popular are Mozila Firefox and Opera. Many users also claim that they are so much better then the Internet Explorer. I personally disagree with them. I am also on the Internet almost 10 hours per day, I am using Internet Explorer and I do not have any problems. By my experience, you need some anti-spyware software like SpyBot, which is completely free. Second thing you need is some good anti-virus software which is also free. I personally use AVG and I am completely satisfied. If you have Microsoft Windows XP, you also have to check do you have SP2 installed. If don't then download and install it. All those things will not slow your machine much but will give you enough protection. In addition, Mailwasher would provide best spam prevention for your machine that is possible.
