Virus
Down loaded update on Feb 2. What received was a virus with a 888 845 9852 number supposed to be Microsoft. I checked the number it was reported as spam. I called the number just for grins, Nancy wanted me to go to th help.info and turn over control to a “technician” so it could be repaired. In strong terms I explained to Nancy what she could do with her web site. I replaced HD and installed back up from external hard drive.

That's a SCAM firefox nor Microsoft will never makes such message as that. One only gets those when going to infected sites or downloading malware infected software.

This did not come with any Firefox download or update from mozilla.org
Likely what happened was you were on a website and got a ad popup of this well scam. Sadly many people fall for it and call the scammers in (likely) India who convince them to pay for tech support and other fees.
