To completely avoid, turn PC off. Truthfully.
If you really want to use it, prevention with running programs are best. Read their docs on how to use them and update them. All these are FREE.
Oh, yes! KEEP WINDOWS UP TO DATE! Use the AUTOMATIC UPDATE feature.

Go to START > RUN. type MSCONFIG. Locate STARTUP tab & LOCATE brasil.pif, scr. UNCHECK all the files which are loading at startup without your knowledge. Also LOCATE all those files manually from FIND menu & DELETE them. Reboot your computer, it should work
