Dear OLCS users. It has been brought to our attention that there is a new malicious virus going around that claims to be sent from "OLCS.NET Support Team". The subject is about spam messages coming from users computers and that they should use the "attached file" to remove the spyware. This is a spoof e-mail and if the attachment is opened can cause damage to your machine.

If you have an up-to-date antivirus (Norton AntiVirus 2004) It will detect this and remove it automatically.

Using the 0870 (10p per minute to the sender) the service can be dialled from fax machines anywhere in the UK. The fax is taken by our system and converted to a multi-page TIFF image, which is then forwarded to the designated e-mail address.

options.

ADSL modems, were you aware that improved performance can be had from other
ADSL modems depending on your individual setup.

provide an agreed service, changing the contract can be both expensive and
troublesome.
