Why? would anyone be stupid enough to pay $2.00 a 
minute for Windows tips, when they can get them all 
right here on the internet for FREE!

Some people DO have shit for brains... but I don't 
believe there's enough of them to support another 
900 line.

"Your call could not be connected. Please check the number and try again."
 
Please post the correct number. 
I take it that number is Australia wide since you posted in 
aus.forsale.computers.

Considering the original poster's email address is a US-based address, I'd
say this is another typical US scam cluttering up our local newsgroups. My
apologies to readers of any of the non-Australian newsgroups to which this
article will also go. 

Regards,

Craig.
