The only thing I worry about is people who don't understand what an executable IS when it shows up in their mailbox because they never have to know anything past shortcuts. These are the same people who don't know what a program really is besides an icon. My dad still says "installing" instead of "making a shortcut", no matter how many times I try to explain the difference.

My point is, I don't see how it would be possible to educate people like him on firewalls and AV programs, besides installing it and trying to tell him not to ignore the warnings.
