        <description><![CDATA[Everyone wants something for nothing and if it is presented in the right way they will go for it without thinking of the consequences. So many times I have heard that it looked legitimate.......blah..... blahThe reality of it is that there are that many naive users out there that need to be educated and not all take lessons or keep up to date with changes. Especially Antivirus. I got to meet quite a few clients who are now educated in the art of when to download as sometimes it may be beneficial.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[I've lost count of the number of users over the years that, out to impress the guy at the next desk, the neighbour next door, the folks in the local pub, anyone at all, download the latest beta of whatever they've got in an effort to get 'Ahead of the Joneses' rather than just 'Keep Up with 'em'.There is something embedded in the average dullard user, a mischievous side to their character, that cannot be controlled whenever a pop-up appears announcing that the latest version of XXX is now available. The danger is that if the latest version is now available, there is also a new BETA out there which in their minds is 'Newer' than the new version.Bugs can sometimes be more damaging than viruses.]]></description>
