Gilligan's Island
A very good surge protection for the whole premises is not only THE best way, but protects all other equipment and some Insurance companies can give you a discount on contents insurance if you have installed by a qualified sparky.

Quoted from beepnutz:My house has been hit by lightning twice here in Florida. Lost many electronics, glad my pins were unplugged. During rainy season, I usually unplug when I know bad storms are headed my way, otherwise they are usually plugged in. Surge protectors do nothing, lightning jumps over them and they do not pay insurance claims, waist of money.
Obviously a cheap plug in job, agree waste of time. Do it properly the first time
