Well there's a ready-written song about that situation, isn't there...
Jan Lane's PC was on the Internet,
Yet ne'er a virus did it get,
Till a friend of hers the Bugbear met,
Quite early in the morning.
Hey Jan Lane, is your firewall set?
Or are your ports unprotected yet?
Oh haste ye install the next update,
Before ye download in the morning...
