We have college students who don’t know a monitor from a modem but they can yank down their AV and firewall software like pros.

We had a kid get majorly infected. He went to a Russian porn site from an email and got the infection. We asked him why he took down the AV and firewall and he told us the site recommended it. Geez!

HAHAHAHAHAHA

I am an IT Director and the Email below is from a person in the Payroll Outsourcing department:

THE PROBLEM

Good Morning Raymond,

I do not have the FTP file on my computer, the GL is ready to be dropped... Can you please drop it in that file for now and set me up later?

Thanks,

MY RESPONSE

Sure. I can FTP a file if you can tell me 3 things:
1. What file?
2. Where is it stored?
3. Where do we need to send it?

HER RESPONSE

I do not know the answer to any of those... LOL
I was told to just tell you about it, and you would be able to assist...
