Emailing patches or links to patches could actually increase confusion in the Windows user population...from their perspective, they've spent the last x number of years being told (pointlessly, I grant you, as they largely ignore anything they are told) NEVER to run/open/execute anything they receive in an email..."Now", they would say, "you WANT us to run/open/execute things we receive via email?" (Of course, you see the problem; they will ignore this instruction as well as they ignored their previous instructions). "Yes", you say, "but ONLY in messages from TRUSTED sources". Unfortunately, asking doe-eyed users to reliably determine the source of a message (or care, for that matter) is probably not going to result in much more than the casting of some rather blank expressions...
