his PC in the shop

I think I'm on a roll here.  Something else to rant about.  How do you take a 78 year old, guy, introduce him to the internet, and keep him from breaking the computer??  This is someone who is sorta close to me.  He has had this computer for over a year.  Yeh, warantee gone!  All he does is search for "information" and try to find porn, which he has been unsuccessful at, so far.  Oh yeh, he is absolutely anal about deleting anything he doesn't think belongs, which is just about anything and everything.  For the last year+ he has been deleting files that were, um, sorta important, cuz he didn't know what they were.  And, he is compulsive about emptying his recyle bin.  Oh, but virus scans and such?  What?  You mean I have to schedule those?  Do it myself?  I ran a scan on his computer when he was starting to have problems getting on the internet.  omg!  The internet clutter and spy ware and god knows what else!  Yikes!  Well, the computer ended up in the shop.  They wiped it and reinstalled.  $239!!!!!  And I have just spent the last couple hours reinstalling his other stuff, getting him on the internet, etc.  I am trying to remain calm, but I could just SCREAM!!!!!!  Deep breath.......

Only a month till I run away from home.
