I'm going to make an off topic post here that you might care to pass on to any friends or relatives that are not perhaps as "Computer savvy" as you are and might fall victim to this
I have had phone calls each day from so called experts, first one claiming to be from Microsoft then one from BT and latterly allegedly from my Service Provider, though he made a mistake and used their old name, not now in use.
Each one was offering to protect my system and I from the malware attacking all over the planet, so I led the last one on a little to see what I was supposed to fall for.
Pretending to have no knowledge I let him talk me through the key presses to open the Event Viewer, and gave him a fictitious number of warnings and events, at which point he asked me to go onto the "Teamviewer, com" web site and download the software that would allow him to access my computer and delete the warnings and put things right.
At this point it was obviously time to stop his little game.
"Sorry, but you are rumbled, I have a note of your telephone number and am passing it on to my actual Internet Service provider as you commiting an act of Phishing, you will be hearing more about this, have a nice day." was my response before putting the phone down.
I did of course contact my Service Provider and the first response was "That's the fifth complaint today, we are working on it."
Unfortunately his number was ex directory as you would expect.
The guy was very smooth and convincing, the worry is that this could so easily work among people too trusting for their own good.
Hope this will prove useful, sorry for being off topic.
