Nor their arrogance. I had two people tell me this weekend that they had got a virus from Windows Update. No way would they listen to what I told them. And it was a complete waste of time enumerating the various attack vectors which could lead them to believing that that was what happened. Whatever I told them, they still refused to believe any other explanation than that Microsoft had sent them a virus from the Windows Update site.
FFS.....I can just hear them now.. I do support for a small company(about 150 end users)and these are the same issues I go through daily, don't even try and explain exploits, it leads to another whole world of frustration/pain..most people don't even want to understand.. I say it all the time to my boss...IT support is a thankless job as the only time I/we get a call is when someone's not happy... On the other hand....without those dimwits I would be out of a job...God bless the dill's.. _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
