task manager ended chrome, started back up and no issue.

Pretty much just a scare tactic for people who don't know anything about computers. As long as the page doesn't come back up when re-opening your browser you should be fine. If it does, try ccleaner to get rid of it quickly. It's just a registry entry and isn't really malicious until you actually click on it to download whatever malware it contains in my experience.

Microsoft would never use a non-800 number.

And they wouldn't use a number with a Boston area code. :)
