Message ostensibly from Microsoft

I recently received a message, ostensibly from Microsoft, which directed me
to go to the following domain and install a change to my copy of Windows:

http://oca.microsoft.com

However, I have never even *heard* of this domain. In today's phishing
environment, I am reluctant, to put it mildly, to get such high-sensitivity
information from what may or may not be an authentic source. Microsoft does
itself a disservice by using a domain which people do not recognize. Why not
just use www.microsoft.com, if I may ask?
