There is nothing anybody can do. People are not computer literate because people do not give a shit about computers and, by extension, computer literacy. For those people, they will only care when they get royally boned by their ignorance like your friend, and even then, I bet your friend's friends still don't give a shit because worst case scenario, "well, we can always ask the IT guy for help."
