Try following their instructions with "unhuh" and "yup" trying to use 
your memory of what windows looks like.  And when they say "now you see 
dis says you have how many viruses"  You say, "It says zero, 
everything's good".  Another script breaking ploy making them question 
their own scripts and tools ($$$).

Got a 6 year old?  Say "Sorry, I need to hand the phone to the decision 
maker in the house".  Train your kid to ask questions like "what's your 
favourite colour?" and "if you were a my little pony, which one would 
YOU be?"

Also worth recording for future use ... like their wedding.
