It's always a challenge, but becoming moreso, as the range of OS's involved is now including Win10, which I don't have. Plus some of our members equate Internet to Webbrowser, email, about anything they 'click'. 

The best I can usually do is expose them to resources, pointing out the highlights, and then send them the links to try in their own environments.

Cheers,
