Need some serious help. Virus/malware prevention?

She's turning off the antivirus, or she doesn't have it enabled for surfing or email. I will also guarantee that she's not updating the virus definitions every day. There's no way she can have antivirus live and ~keep~ having viruses and malware. One might get through every few months if she's visiting a lot of dodgy sites, but not with normal browsing and live antivirus.

1) She should not have Admin access to her computer. She needs to be set up solely as sign-on, and access to antivirus/malware programs should not be in her control.

2) Take away her ability to access private email and Facebook. She and her friends are probably passing viruses back and forth like sailors and hookers.

3) Malwarebytes is great. Bitdefender is a good antivirus, but if she turns it off or disables the live section, it won't be any better than what she's got now.

Any employee who has this kind of problem more than once is not a desirable employee. If her job includes social networking, she should also be savvy enough to avoid most virus/malware. Otherwise, she's just another 13-year-old girl following Kardashians around the net, and not valuable in a business environment.
