"The average person doesn't know how to do all of the things needed for a system; that is we have to trust HP if we buy a computer to be sure the system is protected when we receive it or any other provider."

Thing is, the hardware manufacturers make the boxes but not the software, so you are really at the mercy of Microsoft in HP's case. As for 'apprehending' these criminals, many of the gangs are in Russia, Romania, parts of Africa, etc., so that is problematic. No easy answers here, hope it works out for you.

Regards,
John
