    That is how long I managed to keep the "support technician" from "Microsoft" waffling on before I got bored with him and told him where to stick his "Important scanning software" They seem to like to use 'support.me' to gain remote access. does anyone know if support.me are actually legit? Next time I will make sure I fire up a virtual machine and let them connect to it and do their worst! I assume they're either going to install some malware, or just show me some fake scan, and sell me the solution. either way, they're scumbags of the worst order.

      Support.me is legit, but anyone can use their tools, and many scammers do. And Microsoft would use remote assistance if any.

      Light moves faster than sound. That is why some people appear bright, until you hear them speak. List of common misconceptions

        15 minutes of being naughty over the phone? You are a stallion! Next time, record your experience and post it online...

          Unless something has dramatically changed since my days at Microsoft, they wouldn't even access your machine under threat of torture. Using RDP/Remote Assistance was considered one of the quicker CEM's* available. //L *) Career Ending Move

            Makes complete sense to me. Out of curiosity, is there any list of CEM's?

              If only they'd Skype me, I would. Just too hard to do on the regular phone.

                Not officially. But I suspect all businesses have their own unofficial list. //L
