I heard something about it at work this morning, several people were complaining of being bombarded with spam when someone said they heard the problem lay with microsoft.
Seems better today so hopefully they've sorted it
Thanks for the link

One of my modern life gripes is that nobody introduces themselves. It's particularly prevalent on the telephone i.e. caller: is that Brian? Oi have some manners and courtesy - give your name and reason for calling before asking for information - to do otherwise is just plain rude. It's just as bad at the front door, on the street pretty much everywhere in fact.
During the Iceland volcano dust cloud time I had a call from an airline - is that <name>? are you related to <parents name?> can you confirm your address? Right stop there says me, before I give out any personal details beyond perhaps my first name don't you think it might be polite to say who you are and give your reason for calling? Oh she said, I suppose you are right. We are calling to let you know that your parents are stuck in Dubai and we can't find them a flight home.... Well why not say that then?

Out driving my truck today in Glasgow City and in front of me was one of those scooters delivery guys with the big topbox on the back with deliveroo on it and the obligatory L plates.
The guy on it is constantly looking to his left hand area and I'm thinking he's looking at the only mirror he has!
Wrong! As he's looking there, he's lifting his left hand and pressing a satnav or mini computer or something WTF!
We stop at lights and I gets out my truck and walk upto him and he's oblivious I'm even there as he's too busy tapping away, so I tap him on the shoulder and ask him why he's doing such a stupid thing and his reply was how car drivers say...."what's wrong, I wasnt doing anything wrong?"
My reply was "I ride bikes too and when car drivers etc fart about using mobile phones or satnavs, a fellow biker gets killed or seriously injured!"
Fekkin stupid idiot, can't believe these clowns are allowed on the roads!!!!
