I have decided to start this thread for discussing technical issues that come up rather than messing up the other threads.
I guess the first issue seems to be pasting Word text into posting boxes.
Recently we have had three threads lockup up as a result of posts involving Word text.

I will look at the e-mails and there will be a common denominator and and block that. maybe the end of the e-mail but will look. thanks Mary
B&B The worst thing you can do is OPEN a dodgy e.mail, even that action alone can let a virous attack in, pinching your info and render your computer useless. I have to empty at least 30 spam mails every day.

NiteOwl never open any but just spam as got my e-mail address. I never had any before and will be telling the Job Centre believe you me I will. They give you a list of sites. it is not the gov site I want to make that clear.
Maybe you should tick to make not public but a lesson learned
I am unable to view the live feeder webcam. Is the webcam working?
Should have said the Loch Garten webcam.
Hi CT..just checked my bookmarks and this link gets you to the feeder. It seems to be labelled as the Loch Garten osprey Nest Cam at the moment.
B&B: what email provider are you using? Gmail seems to catch almost all spam for me - I don't notice it until I happen to check my spam folder every so often in case I missed something. And yes, don't open anything dodgy, and certainly don't reply to the 'unsubscribe' or 'stop these messages' links - this stuff is mass-mailed out, and some addresses may not actually exist - this just lets the spammers know your address is active. Same goes for text message spam I think.

RtB I am using Hotmail and now Outlook through hotmail. I am still getting all these e-mails and keep doing a sweep and delete and block. That is not the answer as my blocked list is enormous and they still keep coming. I wonder if you can block say the end of an e-mail. I have never had spam until I put something on-line and furious. Even if I delete it these places have got my e-mail. I do not open but they are a nuisance.
Most are from PPI, loans sharks, medical insurance etc. I am concerned that I might miss something important but not taking any chances.
Thank you for your reply.
NiteOwl U have just read your message and we should not get so many spams and you must be able to stop it.
