"Put information infront of the user, on unrelated pages. Keep doing it and eventually users will educated on a reasonable level to better check and patch systems, before the authors of malicious code and script kids get to them first." n3td3v

No, your receptionist really couldnt give a shit, they have enough to do without
reading security advisories spammed to them every day.  What you would find is
that they will probably learn more about adding a spam filter than securing
their PC.  Educating end users on risk is good, but you cant expect them to
patch their own systems especially when someone else is being paid to, or do
you want to be out of a job? :)
