I agree but why should the majority be affected by those in the minority that are to stupid to own a PC and even turn the thing on.  |
Hmmm I disagree totally here. People who are less technically savvy are the reason that there are IT support desks.
Why should the majority not be protected even if it comes at the annoyance of a minority, especially on a large, mass-market ISP such as Virgin Media? If we were talking about
Andrews and Arnold or even
Zen Internet I might see your point but Virgin are, along with Talk Talk and BT, mass market ISPs where a vast majority of customers are not technically knowledgeable and will happily click on an attachment so long as the bit of social engineering at the start is remotely convincing.
