There's no point installing antivirus software unless you actually use it. Most programs these days will allow you to set it to scan on a regular basis (daily/weekly/monthly) as well as a manual scan.
Also, spyware/adware/malware is a big issue with Windows systems. Running programs such as SpybotS&D, Adaware, and HijackThis should find anything that the antivirus program doesn't spot.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
