    Jon,

    Don't know, don't open.

    If you don't know the sender, don't open.
    If the title isn't clear, don't open.
    If it is bloody important, they will find a better way to let you know.

    I got a PM too. I told him to do a search And I refused to send him a free copy of TurboCAD.
    I was a bit peeved to get a PM from someone who had just a single post to his name. Would it be possible to prevent people who had never posted before from sending PMs?

    John,

    I too got e-mail and PM through this forum from this person. I previewed the email (on a work PC ) - and it's from someone "in Europe" asking for a free copy of CAD software.

    I'm not sure it's SPAM, but it certainly looks a bit iffy...

    Be careful, overhere in the UK they dismiss people who use the company computer to access the web for private use.

    Youll have too. We can't anymore. :mad:
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    Company policy allows access to the 'net during lunch breaks, etc for non-business related activities - except the obvious :eek:
