Hmmm - Freeserve in trouble?

I got an email today saying that their inbox facility - which allows you to send faxes and voicemails to your mailbox has been discontinued. On checking their main web page, also noticed that their call manager software, which alerts you to the fact that you have an incoming call - using call waiting on BT which is chargable - is also being discontinued. Add this to the fact they've discontinued their Free for a tenner access........

From the Not so hoax email department


WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
IF YOU RECEIVE A GIFT IN THE SHAPE OF A LARGE WOODEN HORSE DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT!!!! IT IS EXTREMELY DESTRUCTIVE AND WILL OVERWRITE YOUR ENTIRE CITY!

The "gift" is disguised as a large wooden horse about two stories tall. It tends to show up outside the city gates and appears to be abandoned. DO NOT let it through the gates! It contains hardware that is incompatible with Trojan programming, including a crowd of heavily armed Greek warriors that will destroy your army, sack your town, and kill your women and children. If you have already received such a gift, DO NOT OPEN IT! Take it back out of the city unopened and set fire to it by the beach.

FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!

Poseidon
Thanks Lockergnome

Be warned about a fake ICQ email - it asks you to put in your user id and password "due to system problems and if you don't do so within two days your account will be void". Needless to say this is a hoax and just provides people with your userid and password so don't do it folks! Check out icq for the REAL thing

Well my old favourite, the BBC have run an article on how the Sony Playstation can become a linux platform courtesy of RUNIX. They ask if anyone has a use for their old playstation now - what about us poor mortals who can't afford or couldn't get a playstation2?

If anyone knows how to get a camera to take a picture automatically then let me know please!
