Do PCs used primarily by females have more spyware than men?

From what I saw when I was fixing computers: More women came in with problems from spyware and virii, but almost always it was a guy who owned the really, really, really, really, really fvcked up computers.

Women tended to have more "little" problems, but it was almost always a guy's computer if it was screwed up beyond belief.

Yes, In my general experience most guys have a slightly better understanding of PCs than females do. (the females on this forum are not your average females though) And will try harder to keep thier pcs cleaner.


Agreed... but men visit more porn sites...
 
Most of the workstations at my location are used by females so naturally I have more support incidents with female operated PCs. I cannot recall the last time I had to fix something on a male operated workstation. The ratio is about 9:1 (female operator to male operator)
