Here is mine:
1. How often do you use the computer? I'm a heavy user.
2. Do you engage in 'at risk' activities? Yes.
3. Does anyone else use your computer? No. Password protected.
4. What is your computer security set up? I have a big security set up. This ranges from 'at browser' security. (For example, using a Sandboxing program to keep viruses away from the PC), I use Norton360 along with several 'on-demand' scanners such as Malwarebytes, TDSSKiller and Kaspasky Virus Removal Tool.
5. How often does your PC get infected? Rarely happens. The last time I came across one was 2 years ago.
