AVG anti-viruses is a very good program that protects you from hackers and viruses. Also zonealarm is very a good program it is a firewall and a anti-viruses program.
In terms of software development the answer is more complex. A large number software security issues can be mitigated by performing proper input validation.
Usually social engineering attacks are defeated by education and policy; users should not reveal sensitive information to those they do not know or trust. In most corporations constant reminders are sent via email and are part of the company policy, as used to defeat this type of attack.

In 2006, LiveJournal was a victim of just this style of attack. You can read about it in detail in the related links. Since then, browsers have implemented security measures making this kind of attack far more difficult to implement (but not impossible.)

Social Engineering
Create a strong cybersecurity awareness program that educates employees about common social engineering tactics and how to identify and respond to them effectively. Regularly remind employees to be cautious about sharing sensitive information and to verify the identity of anyone requesting information. Implement multi-factor authentication and access control measures to add an extra layer of security to sensitive systems and information. Conduct regular security assessments and simulations to identify vulnerabilities and gaps in your organization's defenses against social engineering attacks.
