I received an e-mail today purporting to be from Microsoft, asking me to
download a "Critical Update". I do not believe it is from Microsoft, but I
don't know to whom I might forward it for further inspection and/or action.
I couldn't find anything on the Microsoft website for reporting a suspicious
e-mail. Anyone know?

Report it to the ISP from which IP address it was sent, and report it to
the ISP who hosts the fake download site.
