A great ESET article, although most tips are general ones about the most targeted applications:
Web browsers
Browser plug-ins (Flash, Java etc)
Windows OS
Adobe Reader

 

And it has some simple and great advice on how to increase security with sandbox technology for:
Adobe Protected Mode
Internet Explorer 10 and later - Enhanced Protected Mode

 

The article also mentions EMET which I've described earlier in this thread:
