What should I do against threats from the net?

Hello there! Thanks for coming to this thread! As some of you know I have been having trouble with a virus lately which was causing my computer to do the strangest things. When I restarted I had a program called "reboot" in my startup menu which what I think was spyware, I deleted it. And now I must say.. I'm scared and am confused on which programs to use against those threats. At the moment I am using a anti-virus program called Avast 4 and using Zonelabs basic as Firewall. I am kind of wondering if there is a program out there which you can call "the best". So I am asking could you help me with this problem?
