I once saw a senior teacher at an educational institute click past the MS office "execute embedded macros?" warning popup SO FAST that personally, as a computer expert, I did not process what she had done until several seconds after the machine was already compromised.
It was at this exact moment that I comprehended the sheer effectiveness of telling the user to disable their own security controls. The teacher had done this so often it was muscle memory.
I didn't even get time to read the warning.
