Ahh... I agree. Don't use aerosols in a computer. Use a drop of thin
oil on the end of a needle to lubricate a fan bearing.
WD40 and 3-in-1 are both suitable (thin) oils, but don't buy them in
aerosols. If you MUST spray oil (eg to stop ferrous metal rusting)
then use an empty kitchen sprayer - not an aerosol!
