o.o Whuh. There was this guy I've taken one single course with on this computer (I'm in the computer room at uni, on "my computer", the one with mIRC and the like), sending an email, and it was taking him ages to find a file he wanted to attach to it on the HD... so I reached over (I was on the computer on the right) and helped him out, and he said "ok, thank you, can you hit the "ok" button when it's done attaching and then "send"? I'm going to get something to eat". I said yes, of course, and I sent the message for him and then closed IE immediately and opened Opera... but, whuh. o.o Either he's really trusting or really dumb. I could've done anything with his open inbox.

happened to me too... and the number of time I saw people giving their phone number on public chats... :rolleyes:
There really should be "internet classes" to learn all the basic security tips...

That reminds me of when one of the people working on our COMP 201 project emailed some documents for printing - including their individual report, which includes a ranking of the contribution of everyone in the group. The rest of us probably could have made some subtle modifications and got a few extra marks...
