What to do if my computer is infected by a virus or a malware?

The link came as a spam, so I expect only bad things from it. I quickly closed the tab before it fully loaded so I don't know what was there. What is the worst that can happen now? If there was some script on that website it might have executed.

What can I do to help the situation now?

as a side note, links are never malicious. Web pages are, and people are, but links are the victims in all this and i defend their good name. – Sirex Jun 3 '11 at 8:18
