How to remove noise from photos?

Like probably many amateur photographers I have problem with too much noise ruining my photos. I would like to know how you all try to fight with this problem.
1. First of all I try to avoid noise in making photos. I try to chose correct exposure, lowest ISO setting (ISO 100) and use tripod and remote shutter to avoid movement. But still my photos come out with too much noise.
What can be done more? What is better to make less noise: Overexpose or underexpose?
2. After taking a photo where is a lot's of options in removing noise by software. I use NeatImage, but I am not very happy with the results, it makes little difference, or blurs the photo too much. Probably there is too much noise in my photos to start with, or maybe I am doing something not right. When is better to apply noise removal: before editing the photo (croping, sharpening, levels) or after editing?
