The following are examples of sites which are not in any way associated with Microsoft, but want you to believe they are. These programs/Patches should *NEVER* be downloaded/installed in your computer.

The only valid place to get windows-related patches, updates is from Microsoft.com. You can either click your start button then the "WindowsUpdate" Icon, or you can open your browser to http://www.windowsupdate.com Which is Microsoft's update website.

If you receive something which "appears" to have come from Microsoft, please forward it to doshelp@doshelp.com as an attachment. If it's confirmed NOT to be from Microsoft, I will let you know and it will be posted here (without your e-mail address).

Disclaimer: DoShelp.com is in no way associated or endorsed by the company/institution described on this page. The purpose of this page is to educate consumers using actual fraud letters collected. In addition this page serves as a resource to report suspected fraudulent e-mails/websites targeting this company/institution. That information is then used to contact the hosting ISP and request removal of the material reported. * all Trademarked, copyrighted names, logos and other materials are property of their respective copyright/trademark holders used here only for accurate depiction of fraudulent web sites and/or e-mails.
