* Anonymity - Not being able to Identify you.

At the absolute minimum, you should have a VPN and Tor Installed, use a private search engine as well as a private browser, and also protect your data with encryption. Although your MAC address doesn't leave your local/Internal network, It's still good practice to spoof It.
Operating In a controlled environment, especially with applications downloaded and executed, Is also a must - a VM or Sandboxie will suffice. For added protection, you can run Sandboxie Inside the VM and launch everything within Sandboxie Itself. Making yourself less unique through browser fingerprinting Is paramount, but It's way beyond the scope of this post to cater for every detail Involved.
