You're going to educate: 1. Little ole' Mrs. Smith who "only" uses her computer to view pictures of her grandkids and to get email. 2. Tom the all-league quarter back football star who only does research for football scholarships. Well yeah also to chat with his friends. And do keep up on the latest tunes. 3. The geek up the street who listens to Leo Laporte and chats about how so many people are on the Internet and don't have a clue about which MB is the best for the hot on-line games and how they waste so much money on things like AV and firewalls. 4. Mrs. Jones who searches for new recopies about fried dumplings and to get the latest entertainment world gossip. 5. The small business owner who gets email and his website as part of the $35 per month DSL package at the shop but his workers "don't" go on the Internet so there is nothing to worry about. More power to ya. > Anyone with some leads on finding the ultimate sources that's creating all > these zombies?? And if you could then what? Unless you want to be a vigilante the government (politicians, courts, lawyers, no wait not lawyers they stick up for them) will just shake their finger at them and say "No No No you must be good boys and girls) Remember people, if the battle against spam and viruses was that easy, the war would be over by now.
