This holiday weekend, when you (computer person) visit your cousin/dad/aunt/grandma, give them a gift:

• install anti-spyware software and configure it to run automatically on startup. I use SpyBot Search and Destroy.
• enable their existing Windows Xp firewall, just turn it on
• give them anti-Virus software (or install the free version of AVG)
• run diskcleanup and defrag
• lower the size of the IE cache
• turn the security in IE up (for ActiveX controls) or install FireFox.
