Yes this was org posted: http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview...atid=50&threadid=1645312&enterthread=y .. and apparently it isn't 'highly technical' even though no one knew the answer..... (they locked the thread is what I am getting at)
(What would be the definitition of 'highly techincal' if it isn't information that is not easily come by?)

/end of rant/


Check out what the email normally looks like:
http://webpages.charter.net/trend/before.JPG

and then when I highlight all the text,I get:
http://webpages.charter.net/trend/after.JPG

What is all that extra text that was hidden?

Encoded message?

Sounds like a phishing scheme. Don't comply until they phone you or snail-mail you.
