Here we created a computation machine that can help mankind do some of its work and things we alone wouldn't be able to achieve. But yet it can get viruses or has flaw in its code. Why? How could this be?

It gets virus's because humans download them..
and the code is flawed because its written by humans..

Nasty people create the viruses
Silly people download the viruses

I am neither nasty nor silly, yet the occasional virus can still get onto my systems.

The main one is that the people who use them [b]Can Not[/b] follow basic security rules and they click on things that they shouldn't.

Depending on what OS you use some are more secure than others but every one can be infected if untrained people use them. Or trained people who chose to act like Idiots and leave their brains at home for safety.

It's just like a car they can take you places quickly that you could never reach otherwise but they can also kill you if you are stupid with them. ;)
