The minimum I would do in a situation like yours is scan for viruses. Ideally, I would nuke and rebuild - you never know what kind of backdoor has been installed that won't come up on a malware scan. This happened to my grandparents, and I rebuilt both of their machines for them to be safe.

How could they have got what they needed? I didn't do anything over the phone except check my msconfig and go to the ammyy.com homepage but not click on any links there.
I think they hung up because I clearly wasn't being uncooperative and asking them all sorts of probing questions like 'so who exactly are you?'
