I'm very selective over whatever I click on when I'm on the internet even if I ever accidentally click on something I dislike by mistake. I don't like some of I what I see on the internet.

The best way to protect yourself is to install a maintain a good anti-virus program on your PC. Yes, Apple devices can get viruses. The trick is not to let a virus get on to your computer rather than trying to get rid of a virus once the infection is in place.
If the virus is in a data or application file, then you cannot guarantee that the virus can be removed without prejudicing the file that carries the infection.
I hope this helps.
