Bender: You seem a tad wound up buddy. And your face is greasy! Real greasy. You been up all night? Fry: Of course I've been up all night! Not because of caffeine, it was insomnia. I couldn't stop thinking about coffee. I need a nap! Zzzzzz... Coffee time!
But I think younger relatives should keep a close eye on their elders. That way you can limit the damage done to Mom or Granddad by this kind of scum.
I'm betting that this naive 73 year old didn't decide himself to get an e-mail account. Whoever it was that decided he needed to be wired should have made sure he knew about these kind of things.
This is very true. I think M$ did screw things up along these lines (as well as several other lines as we all know). A good example of how to do it properly is what Apple does. The possibilities to muck around in your system are there, but you are required to know what you're doing before you try. It would be awfully hard to acedentally rip out the slot loading DVD drive on my Cube, but if I look, I can find documentation on how to do it (and correctly).
