AOL Users Launch The Majority Of Worms And Viruses
I've worked on many machines over the past ten years, and about 95% of the machines I work on that have to be rebuilt due to viruses, worms, spyware, etc...are running AOL...why is that? Is it that AOL users are so lazy they can't take the time to learn about the threats and vulnerabilities that are out there?

Holy crap, if the e-mail is from Joe Habibba and it says "Here's that file you asked for" DONT OPEN IT!!!
