This is nothing to do with viruses on networks. The same thing is happening on BT lines as well.

It's just scam companies trying to persuade people to dial premium rate 0906 numbers on the basis that they have 'won a prize'. Do NOT dial these numbers, they will cost you a fortune.

Simply receiving the calls won't cost you anything, the annoying part though is that they tie up your line until they have finished....even if you hang up.
