It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Maxep is a well known malware site apparently. I would uninstall it

Look in Manage Add Ons in your IE browser for BrowserCompanion.

If its there, in C:\Program Files you'll find a folder named BrowserCompanion.

Check add/remove programs for an uninstaller.

If there isn't one, find the file in Program Files and Delete it.

In Firefox, look for the option to uninstall in Manage Add Ons. Otherwise proceed as in IE.

Then run a full virus scan, and any antispyware you have.

Spam done by the human element can't be stopped.
Could you please not post in the spam thread as when we delete the spam account it leaves random posts over the board.
Could you please report it using the report function button. Using this feature makes it easier for us to deal with it quicker.
Been a while.
Bump. :roll:
We've been getting paid spammers on the site,these cruds register,have a look at what the site is about and make slightly related posts but have dodgy links in their sig.
If you spot these please let us know in the usual way.

Cheers

We are being spammed big time
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
