1.
n. When a technically inept computer user or geek- wannaberepeatedly hassles a legitimate IT (information technology) person in an attempt to befriend them and pick their brain for free computer knowledge. The person with the IT crush can't be bothered with reading books themselves, and also considers you be their personal IT person and will email you directly instead of opening a support case through proper channels. The IT crush may also go so far as insisting on being on your IM buddy list, and sends you 'helpful' email like computer advertisements and virus warnings, cartoons, etc..
Usually the most prone to latch on are also the most prone to be infected by a trojan or virus.
