Social engineering in the latest crop of viruses has people jumping through hoops to open malicious attachments. How do we change the pattern?

Why do most of these responses sound like they were written by that Saturday Night Live Computer Guy - you know, the one who says, "move!", "was that so hard??", and "you're welcome!". Such bitterness just because you are exposed to people who don't spend every waking moment adhering to abstract rules of conduct relating to machines which represent symbolic interaction!

Remember: computers don't pay our salaries; people do.
