My little rant, which some of you might remember from the Grid days! I originally proposed that these little $h!ts should be given a suspended sentence, on the end of a rope, if caught and convicted! Some other members however had far superior (and in some cases, more painfull / messy / better) ways of dealing with them.
----------------------------------------Having just finished re-installing an elderly couple's laptop (they got clobbered by a virus and lost a lot of photos, e-mails etc), I thought "Suspended sentence? Nope: Buried next to a grenade which will go off if they move more than a few cms in any direction! After that, release some fire ants around them, then run like heck*! C'mon everyone! I'm sure there's a lot of other people out there, who, like me, hate 'em more than is necessary!! ![]() *edited to appropriate forum language - ErikaT
Some look on me as an institution... Some think I should be in one!

You are way too kind and sympathetic given what I believe we should REALLY do to punish these social deviants.
I am very tired of fixing computers with this issue, and many times I can usually trace this back to Limewire, or some other file sharing or information sharing software that the user may or maynot have been aware at the time. After the owner or user has been properly educated about good computer and internet use, and installing firewalls, anti-virus, and other third party protection software are these problems mitigated. |
