Was that all your own handiwork Tony?
It was very funny.

Glad all is normal with you Huia - well normal as it can be.

Where I worked our IT person had a problem with his keyboard. He had dropped some noodles on it when eating his lunch the day before - they had dried and jammed his keys.

He was such an authoritarian person, shared an office with me - I absolutely relished e-mailing everyone his mishap.

When I was learning typing at high school Persey, it was a definite no-no to eat or drink by the typewriter. I must admit I play on my computer while eating and drinking but try not to have food or drink over the keyboard. It gets enough fluff in it anyway. I have a childs small paint brush which I sometimes use to try to get the fluff out.

Huia who has 2 new email addies to make up for being scammed.

Oh no Huia not scammed - I have a Russian security system and it is like the KGB - it is very good plus Firefox is there as well (sometimes it can slow things down depending what mood the vixen is in). I was thinking of you the other day - had lunch with my friend from Ararimu.

I have come to the conclusion that I have probably panicked unneccesarily. I think I might have changed my password last year, but didnt note down what the new one was, and being old I have forgotten it, so gave out the wrong password! I was able to change it this morning anyway, but in the meantime I will not use hotmail for a couple of weeks if I can help it.

Huia.

hee hee.....sorry x
Weird sense of Aussie humor....lol

Some of us are like that. Its genetic...... and handed down through the generations from the convict era.

Huia. Sorry to hear you were scammed, mate.
I always think,( emails ) if it dosent look right, then dont open it ( delete ).
Always telling OH never open anything that looks suspicious that comes into her email box, or ask for your personal details.

She enters Aussie comps every day,( wins heaps too ) and belongs to a membership Competition forum on the net, so receives many emails daily.


Happy mothers day for Sunday also, to our Aussie mums and also to our N.Z mums across the pond.

Tony....:>))

Tony, it did look genuine at first glance. It had the MSN logo. But it was late afternoon and I was flagging so didnt notice a couple of small things until just as I clicked on 'Send'. MSN send quite a few emails wanting me to do different things with their site. In future I will just dump such things just in case they arent the real McCoy. I never take up their offers anyway. I usually dump emails if I dont know who they are from, without opening them. Anyway, I think I am safe, after all if I gave the wrong password to Scumball he wouldnt have been able to get in, would he. I am wondering if he might have been phishing for a young nubile gullible woman. I only fit the latter part. Far from young and nubile.

Huia.
