Earlier then i had the well known scam call from a company claiming to be acting on behalf of Microsoft called Computing 24/7 and a bloke called Olaf Neil Stating Microsoft asked them to contact me cos i have a Legal Version of Windows and it is infected with Malware and as soon as i mentioned the police he hang up.

I contacted the Police and reported it and the lady i spoke to insisted i also reported these add calls to my provider to see if they can do anything but no idea who i am to contact.

Anyone know?
No help what so ever but I have exactly the same. Mr or Miss Ward is the name I get, tried everything it seems we are going to have to spend even more money to get something that is effective, why Virgin can't provide a service or hardware is beyond me, we pay enough for the privelage of their services!
