No, I'm saying awareness of the actual causes of computer issues like Cryptolocker can be very helpful in preventing such infections.
No one in the general public is going to know how to protect against "hackers". "Don't open attachments if you aren't expecting them from someone" is actionable advice.
The problem is, before your edit, you just made a sarcastic response whose sole function, as far as I can tell, is to belittle the person you were responding to for their lack of awareness of issues like Cryptolocker without attempting to inform them.
This may not be a correct interpretation of your post but it is how it reads to me, above the edit.
edit: C'mon, folks. Cryptolocker isn't a bunch of hackers targeting individual network drives. It's spread via email. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CryptoLocker
