I set up this computer for them, for legitimate business purposes, and he fucks it up by surfing porn all day. And he brings it back because he needs it to go to "job sites" or whatever.

My credit card has been used on a computer, but if that number is compromised, there is a small minimum liability for me, so I'm not concerned. Similarly, my 401K information is on the computer, but all a hacker could do is switch funds around into various accounts. All of my "money" information is kept as far away from the computer as possible. Figuratively speaking. Astute Dwellars will remember from my house tour that my filing cabinet was situated next to the computer desk. |

I don't have my statements on the computer, I just meant that I had purchased things online with my credit cards before.

I knew you were joking, but didn't get the filing cabinet aspect of it. My bad.
Anyway back to Flint's friends who do their banking online and surf sketchy porn sites with the same machine. What's up with them? [/awkwardly tries to change subject away from my lack of a sense of humor] |

Tell him it's got a PEBKAC and there's nothing you can do.
