It's EXACTLY the point ... it's like ANY machine, you (and it appears you and your family do this) treat it with disrespect (no consideration as to what it requires, what it is supposed to do) and you reap the benefits (you get viruses, adware and shit like that). I've dealt with dozens of machines exactly like that and in ALL cases it has been the user that is the problem ... as we used to say on help-desks (I've been on enough of them) it's another PEBCAK and that means it's YOUR fault and not MS's.
