Re: Useful advice that won't help

Anyone know a way to break this loop?

Most users won't read this article or any article warning them and telling them how to fix it. More important to mingle on Farcebook, et al. Then there's the older folks to whom computers, while fun and great for communications, planning vacations, etc. don't have a clue either. So they're not really lazy, just ignorant and/or don't care. There has to be a better way to get info out there.

It would be nice of all the security items mentioned as to ports, RDP, etc. for this and other infections were turned off by default, but M$ won't do it.
