Since your a beginner, a precautionary measure is needed.

Add EMET (Enhanced Mitigation Experienced Toolkit) protection against exploit through vulnerable protection.

Add DNS like Norton DNS, Comodo DNS or ClearCloud DNS (only available till September)

Do you share the same user account?

If not, do both have user accounts with admin privileges and have you considered using a Standard user account?

I'd add Sandboxie as Jack already posted, because of the fact you said your are careless about clicking a link. And you are also on a 32-bit OS other than that you are all set.
