if you are going to use the computer, you MUST be prepared to face the "virus". I take care of computers for some of this town's elderly. I am impressed with how many virus' these folks have! They visit we love God.com and email their grandbabies. They call me to say their computers are frozen, and wont work. I arrive to find a mess!
Even in what you think is the safest of places, bad people want to muck about, and mess things up for the rest of us. Just be careful. If you dont know who sent you that funny email...DELETE it! If it has a link...DONT click it!
Sometimes just the act of opening your FB is enough to open that dreaded page that says "you've been infected! click here to fix it!" wel...THAT is the virus! DONT CLICK! its gonna unfold itsself and eat your computer. It looks very real!
Have good protections in place. Tons of free ones out there, but add layers of protection. Antivirus/antispyware/Antispam/Malwarebytes Snag um coming and going.
If your friends get infected, and something ends up on your plate. Hug your friend, and tell them you understand. it happens to the best of us.
