Try not fighting it so much...

<me>Do You support Linux?
[Support] Huh???
<me>Hang on going to another computer,  yes XP.

When you get the point of "windows only" simply start answering yes and
try and get them to tell you the real problem like java version.
Substitute versions for what you know, remember that Mozilla works on
Windows as well.

Tell them you are technical and supporting multiple computers that must
support them if it gets really dodgy, explain that you cannot follow
their script you need what they are looking for like version numbers of
software.

Note: When they say reboot tell them to hang on and wait a little while
