Nothing is going to make you invisible to websites. The best you can do is prevention. Make sure you have antivirus and firewall software running. Get anti-spyware programs like AdAware, Spybot, or M$'s own spyware program, and run them frequently. Make sure you have Windows SP2. Think about using another browser like Firefox or Opera.
