It's a fact that a few simple settings can vastly improve your security (aren't you writing a tutorial on that subject?) - why not have an automated tool that changes those settings? Or are you hoping that the average user will read and implement your tutorial?
Yes, I am writing a tutorial on that, I have had a few delays, but it is getting done.

My issue with the one size fits all tools is that they miss quite a bit in many cases, and it doesn't *teach* the user anything. The user stays blind to the way the computer works. That is why I am writing the tutorial, and posting it on a variety of sites. (I am posting a link to it and hosting it on my server to prevent copyright and ownership issues).

Many security settings are not difficult to implement, and a user who has had even a small amount of experience should be able to manage it. THis is why I am writing the tutorial. The user doesn't have to be scared of system settings or the registry, they just need to pay attention.

Look at me... I have never had any formal training, everything I know was learned from books, forums, tutorials, and just playing around. If my drunk ass can do it, the average user sure as hell can.
