Beware chaps the scammers are out in force at the moment.
My wife fired up the main machine yesterday and there was much alarm beeping and flashing of the screen with "stop do not shut down" then "Ring your Microsoft consultant on 08 ######## for immediate assistance to free this machine for use" etc etc.
Being a Pc user for many years, I cut the power immediately and an hour or so later she fired up again problem free. I am not sure if this was a worm or a virus but I am sure it was a scam. Had we rung that number we would have been treated to advice from a "Microsoft" employee asking us for our account details so that they could sell us an upgraded security package or whatever.
