Hello everybody,
A slight, but important, diversion here.
Yesterday afternoon I received a call and answered it.
There was a noticeable delay before an Indian sounding gentleman addressed me by name and then rabbited on including the magic word MICROSOFT.
Given that the word is an anathema to me, I instructed the caller to "be off you silly man" in a peremptory manner.
The line then went dead without another word.
I have no doubt this possible member of homo sapiens was one of the nasty scammers, striking fear into the uninitiated, with threats of computer infections to allow him to plant eavesdropping malware on my computers.
There have been several such calls around here.
Kind regards,
Walter
