It's a *telephone* scam, Doug. They call you, and tell you that there are

know what happens when you agree; maybe they have you log into their site and 
install malware, maybe they just charge you for the login. I just don't know. 
You see, when the caller completed his opening sentence, I said something very 
rude which may damage international relations--and hung up. I use a Mac, and I 
won't touch Windows with a vaccinated crowbar. (Personal choice.)

Thanx for the info, Jim. They can expect the same response from me, if they call. I have Windows, but I seldom log in to it--I do almost all computing using PCLinuxOS.
