Give me a a good Lab or German Shepherd any day.
My neighbor just got a new dog, a little bitch with some Labrador in her. Sweetest little thing, I love her already. Scooter.
She loves lamb chops, too ... cain't be all that bad.
On-topic - Confused. So I got a scary pop-up message basically saying my computer had this nasty virus that was stealing all my shit, and to call this number that apparently put me through to Microsoft. Naturally, I called my bank up straight away and had them cut up my debit card, and changed my email and Facebook passwords, but I called the number out of curiosity...
I got put through to this man I could barely understand over the phone, who was talking about "I can fix it, but it'll cost you £200"
Puttanna, per favore. This sounds like a scam.
So anyway I'll call the real Microsoft tomorrow and ask them what the deal is. I turned my laptop off and back on again, seems fine.
It is a scam. First, never click on any popup showing that sort of message. Ctrl-Alt-Del, and kill your browser, right then and there. After that, open your security software and immediately do a complete system scan. It's a good idea to change your passwords, too. I'm not sure what they can cull simply from a popup -- but this has kept me out of most trouble, since I did have malware hijack my email a year ago.
