How can someone protect their computer from malware attacks?

### REPLY:
One effective way to protect your computer from malware attacks is by using a firewall to block incoming and outgoing connections. Additionally, encrypting your data and regularly backing it up can help mitigate the impact of a malware infection. It is also advisable to disable macros in documents and avoid downloading files from peer-to-peer networks. Finally, implementing strong passwords and enabling two-factor authentication can add an extra layer of security to prevent malware attacks.
