They can't count. :M
They can't compute?  :orly:

A couple of years ago, they introduced something called Windows 2000. That's all I'm going to say. :M

Don't use Windows 10. :M

2. they are freaking out because they can't connect to the internet after downloading a recent update.
What are you using as a fix?

Winsock reset or loading a different anti-virus.

But sometimes it comes back.

There is no one-size-fits-all fix for that one it seems.

Microsoft acknowledges the problem...but that seems to be about it.
