[AT] OT Computer question

[charlie hill]

Actually Phil it appears that they do.  I know you are vastly more 
knowledgeable than I am but one of those Microsoft error reports popped up. 
They pop up everytime I have any sort of problem with XP, even if it's just 
a program failing to run for some reason.  It always asks if you want to 
send the report.  I usually don't send them though.  This time I noticed a 
link in the Error Report pop up for info about what the report does and 
where it goes.  In that report (on a microsoft web page) it mentioned 
exactly what happened.

You might be correct.  It might be a scam but if it is it's very well done 
and it's been going on with this computer since I took it out of the box new 
a little over a year ago.

Let me know what you think and thanks for the info.

Charlie
