We've just gotta bear it.

Talking about people who don't understand computers, i went to my friends house and he's got quite a fast computer, but when using it, it took ages to load up anything. He didn't have an antivirus or antispyware program installed! I downloaded AVG and ran it. It took about an hour to run and found over 200 viruses! I deleted them (had to do some manually), then i deleted all the spyware.

After, his computer ran so much faster and you could actually open 2 programs without it crashing. He downloads so much music and stuff which is probably what gave him the viruses, but i was like surely you've heard of an anti-virus program?
