You need a very strong AV product running on your desktop to detect and isolate the portable executable that gets downloaded. This protects you better than anything. You can also run a web content product to help detect the redirect scripts in these malware sites.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis
