Which is true but the majority of Windows users
that won't take those precautions. For example my
wife. I take care of her business computers. If I
don't set everything up to run properly
automatically she will not do it. She just wants
to get on do her thing and then get off.
She won't even delete old emails. Many are like
this and that is where the problem lies, not with
the few that know better.
so game over is true and works here is not the norm.
