That's not avoidable, unless you live in a box. I have come to appreciate
that I will continue to suffer from these things as long as Windows prevails
as a majority on the desktop. The least I can do is help the transformation.
I never hesitate to show my anger when a Windows user whines that his/her
computer has gone slow. This often means others are suffering, yet only
speed is the worry in the mind of the one infected. It's like driving your
car through a crowd and ranting about the poor visibility on the road.
Best wishes,
Roy
