I received a call from "Microsoft Service Center" today, unsolicited. It sounded like it was from India so I was curious to what it was all about. The man said that they had received several messages from my computer that I was downloading viruses that I could not detect with ordinary software. BTW, they just called again. This is some kind of scam, right? I normally just hang up but was curious if this happens to others?
