My little brother is computer literate, he knows enough about spyware/adware/viruses to delete them himself, can fix basic computer problems, etc.
It's a little harder to expain to my dad these things but he sticks to what I recommend him to use (Firefox, Adaware) so we haven't had too many problems.
My mom can hardly double click. I had to put my browser icon in the quick launch area so it could be accessed with one click. She only does online banking...
As for immediate family, only my generation can use the computer. I get called a lot to fix computer problems. They like to reformat whenever something goes wrong and then repeat the same mistakes again. My uncle thought his router was not working one time and plugged his modem to his computer directly without having any kind of firewall. And viruses flooded his computer. Gah.
How ya doing, buddy?
