I seem to get these regularly, saying my windows machine is infected by
a virus - that they are ringing from microsoft and offering to help
me.  When I say that I am not running windows they say it was a mistake
and they mean my Mac is infected, then I say I am running linux and
they start spluttering, I usually hang up.
