I know this is well off topic but if i get another phone call from " the technical department of windows" from someone from the sub continent i am going to go off my nut. How do i stop these annoying buggars?
Speaking of windows my computer tells me I can't upgrade to windows 10! I have 8.1 which came with the Dell laptop I bought. I read somewhere that one of the versions they don't do a free upgrade for is a mass distribution version. :(

Funny you mention this. I had a few missed calls from what appeared to be overseas numbers earlier this week. I didn't answer them but i'm guessing it was the same guys.

It comes up as a private number on our phone. I have to answer it as the employment agency im with also shows up as private so cant afford to miss a call . Mother in law in nz also comes up as private so if I dont answer risk losing half a house and a wife.

It works however it dosent stop them ringing again and again. Sometimes wont have a call for weeks and then will have 3 or 4 a day for a week.
And it's a well known scam. They trick you in to letting them remote access your computer and then hey presto! They discover a virus and charge you money to remove it.

Would just like to thank Rowsus for all his time and effort he has put into his Questions For Rowsus thread over the past 18 months.
I remember I asked Rowsus late last year for some advice regarding some trades. He suggested I go a little left field and bring in Rocky and JJK. At this point, I fair dinkum thought that Rowsus had finally lost the plot. Rowsus went on to explain that JJK beat up on some teams and his run home suggested he would score well. After letting this advice sink in for a few days, I decided to go with the trades.
JJK then went on a scoring frenzy for the remainder of the year. It's a trade that I would never of thought of and it was a big part of my last years final overall ranking of 57th.

Many thanks again mate, huge effort.
Look forward to seeking your knowledge in the future.

I just noticed the ladder and found this interesting at the end of Round 18:

8. Geelong P16 W9 D0 L7 %102.4 Pts 38
9. Adelaide P16 W9 D0 L7 %102.2 Pts 38

Seems like the right decision was made!

I never would have guessed that the most expensive players in my team at the end of Round 18 would be two backmen and a ruck... :eek:

- Goldy = $771k
- Shaw = $605k
- Hodge = $602k

Hey doc you obviously you have your Mother in laws no. , is that number in your phone's contacts because if you enter that number it should show when she calls , private or not , same with your agency one.
On your windows one just google windows scams and you can read all about it , Mr Young was spot on.

My sister just got a new private number and i entered her number in our phones and the number shows when she calls, hope that helps you anyway

They meet in the final round too.
Could well decide last finals spot.
Richmond also play North in final round which probably the winner gets a guaranteed home final in week one.

Mum in laws number use to appear but about a year back it started coming up as private. Agency calls are from the mobile of their rep that I deal with who wants to keep his number to himself . I know about all the scams those indian folk use if im in a good mood I let them ho through all the way to the last step that gives them access and then just laugh at themm.:)

Not sure if anyone has noticed, but the 'Supercoach Scores' logo at the top right corner of the website needs to be moved up a little so that the 'Scores' part is completely visible, see image below for clarification.

P.S...I'm known for picking out these type of things and am always on the lookout for improvements so don't take it as me being 'nitpicking'.

Possibly already fixed, but for me it seems as though the 'Scores' is not being covered over at all.

Maybe Jay already fixed it :)

Try this website mate -

https://www.donotcall.gov.au/

It stops most of the annoying telemarketer calls you get to your house.

When I log on to the website via my Samsung Galaxy phone, the logo is OK. I just log on through my laptop, via Internet Explorer v11, and the logo is still as the image I posted in my previous post. Maybe it's just my laptop and not sure whether anyone else is seeing the same thing?
