My boss's computer was infected with the w32.beagle.aq@mm!zip
virus, and various bits of spyware and adware such as powerscan,
conscorr.exe, bxxs5.dll (and much more).

This seemingly happened while he was browsing a message board
called IDCC on the www.investorshub.com website.

He says that he did not download anything - how could this infection
have happened? How can it be prevented in future?

Note: he was running Norton antivirus software.

Thanks!
