More computer woes
« on: May 15, 2007, 10:03:04 AM »
In the last two days I have sent around 40 e mails, many with attachments, but have had none back, and indeed no new e mails of any sort.

I now discover that someone, perhaps a small person with disproportionate computer skills, had reset the clock in the machine to MARCH 2007. All my inbound emails are to be found about three months back , many of my outbound e mails have arrived apparently three months late!!

It has been statistically proven

Both in chapter, and in verse.

That in an Adult/Kid computer fight

The Adult always comes off worse.

I did tell you Nick, that if you get a biometric thumbprint rig then the boy wouldnt be able to crack your admin login.   point:

I think you'll find that they'll want quite a lot of blood, along with the aforementioned pound of flesh.
