How To tell you Friends or Family they’ve got a computer virus!

After all, just one virus on a computer is one too many.  — Glenn Turner 

It’s Sometimes isn’t easy telling your family or friends that they have a computer virus.   Sometimes, you feel like you just beating an old horse.  I’ve always had the philosophy that it isn’t going to change until you make it change.  In this little quick article I am going to give you a few tips and tricks to help tell your friends that they have a virus.   

Simple ways to Tell your friends/family:

 

  • Flickr — Find a Photo and send to you Family/Friend
  • Pintrest — Another Good Photo sharing site!
  • Send them my Antivirus Page!
  • Twitter — If your know their twitter account, send them a Quote about a Virus!
  • Facebook — If they are your friend on Facebook then you tell them out right!

Explain to them about a Computer Virus!

I kid you not.  I sometimes have to explain why they get a virus.  It isn’t allways going to be easy because of the way people feel embarrassed that they have a virus but if they don’t know how can they fix the problem. A computer virus can be a very touchy subject to some of them and thus you will have to consider someone’s feelings when it is time to tell them that they have a virus.   I am not going to go into a lot of detail on this article because everyone is a little bit different when it comes to their attitude about having a computer virus.  Some will laugh others will get really defensive and thus if I try to tell you to do it a certain way you may end up hating this post, but the hope is that you can have the courage to help stop the spread of these darn pesky computer viruses.   

Not telling your Family or Friends can lead to the problem at hand.   Remember only you can prevent the spread of Viruses or Malware!
