    Hi Min

    Your’re on.
    However there won’t be much snow on the mountain so leave your skis at home. Could take you trout fishing. There is a river on my doorstep.
    School Xmas holidays start on about 20 Dec and the kids don’t start again until late Jan 2004.
    email address is bobabraham11atnzoomail.com
    How about that with your email address written this way computer crawlers cannot retrieve it.
    That’s my hint for the day.

    Regards

    does that mean you got a zillion emails too containing pif and scr attachments? It’s so annoying, I don’t have a virus and Macs are immune to this sort anyway but I still had my email ‘hacked’ somehow so people were getting emails from me with virusses, which I never sent…!!

    I think I have sorted it out now

    cheers-
    Mini

    PS Yeah trout fishing sounds great, never done it, only the sea sort of fishing, hey are you into pighunting? many of the locals where my houses are seem to be into it..???!! Not that I want to go, just wondering if you are into it – !!

    cool about the ‘still buzzing’ part as well!!
    it was gorgeous to see you too and you should have recieved the photos by now!

    hi Recoveryman
    welcome back to the forum

    that speeling has difinatlee improoved.
    I’m a shocker at spelling but i’ve descovered you can edit your own messages which i have done sometimes when i’ve been embarressed over my spelling. (see i can’t even spell that how about a spell checker on the forum?)

    Firstly i’m interested in the SIM card is it a prepaid one ?
    Well done on your hunting trip.
    regards westan

    Westan
    it is a prepay, i gave it to my mate who is back
    there would not be much if any credit left
    but it is easy to buy top up cards
    recovery
    p.s I will get it off him and send it to you
    I need it back when you have finished with it

    MiniMogul… the reason your email is sending
    the pif and scr files to others is that it runs
    a tracer program thru the C coding/debugging
    from which your email program is based on, even
    though you have a Mac. In then transfers over to
    Windows PC machines. Hope this helps.

    Hey Sach,

    It’s the sobig-F worm, which I apparently can’t get –

    http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.
    [email protected]

    http://www.bayarea.com/mld/mercurynews/business/technology/personal_technology/6583164.htm

    If you are correct then that’s pretty weird, because all my research (and copious use of Norton Anitovirus, Agax, and others) indicates I not only don’t have a virus but can’t catch one. Macs don’t run .exe’s.

    So my email address must have been ‘hacked’ as in the above explanation (the first link) because it was on a another computer (PC) which got the virus and had my email address on it’s database. I guess that’s why changing my password seemed to fix it. Sooshie had it too, so I assumed it was propertyinvesting.com…..

    I think it is sorted out now, I changed the admin server log-in to my web-site, as well as all my email log-ins

    cheers-
    Mini

    Interesting… try and ask around some of the
    IT professionals that are in here. They may
    know. Just post a new topic in regard to this
    as maybe others also are facing the same problem
    if propertyinvesting -dot- com is the reason.

    Everyone in these forums seem to know each other
    very well, with face to face visits / meetings
    etc. Good to see.

    Hi Sach,

    re: IT professionals, -a PC IT person wouldn’t necessarily have a clue about Macs. My mac boffins say it’s impossible.

    No matter what may or may not have been announced officially i know through friends that a suspected computer did have the worm.

    Yeh meeting forumites in real life is fabulous!!
    whether at Steve’s seminars, or at privately arranged get-togethers!!

    cheers-
    Mini

    I figured out why you use a MAC. you are a Music
    and Multimedia person. Saw your website. yeah
    personally i am a huge IBM compatible fan.
    with the flexibility of it and all. Are you a
    singer / songwriter / producer etc?

    yep all of the above!!!

    update about the house with the fire, house is still in post-fire pending-repairs condition (has been insurance-assessed) – but tenants don’t care about the fireplace, they just wanna move back in (so they have!) – but now the element on the hot water cylinder has gone. Probably nothing to do with the fire (agent thinks.) However tenants would prefer to live there paying full rent rather than not live there while it is getting fixed. they love the place, yay!

    So they are in and I guess i will eventually get $$$ to do the repairs.

    cheers-
    mini

    Hi MiniMogul

    After reading this topic I can understand how you got your name. I’m new at this forum stuff and property investment game and you sound so successful, it’s great. I would like your opinion or your boyfriend’s opinion. Can I work for no wages with him when he is renovating so I can learn. Obliviously I would take out protection for your boyfriend so he couldn’t be held responsible for me if there was an accident, we should be able to work something out. I’ll be moving to Melbourne round Xmas. Please consider

    Hi John,

    “Hi MiniMogul
    After reading this topic I can understand how you got your name. “

    u mmmm yeah… you make it up when you join the forums – hehe!! It was a bit of a fake-it till-you-make-it name in my case because at the time of joining I don’t think I owned a single property yet!!! “from zero to 3 properties in 6 months”

    >I’m new at this forum stuff and property investment game and >you sound so successful, it’s great.

    Ahhh….hehe…..”sounding” successful is a lot different than “being” successful….I sooo don’t think that I am ‘there’ yet – (though I also think I will be, one day—!) though I enjoy shooting the sh”””t about property investing and at least now i have three which is better than having zero a year ago, I’m very much learning as I go -making every mistake in the book – and writing about it here- and having fun.

    >I would like your opinion or your boyfriend’s opinion. Can I >work for no wages with him when he is renovating so I can >learn.

    Definitely. However we are buying in NZ. If you’d be keen to go there with him next time I’m sure he’d love to have you. We’d pay you too at a labourer’s rate if you want to actually work not just watch…? bring an air mattress and sleeping bag…!!!! or maybe we could pay the airfare…anyway I don
    ‘t know when the next one will be, or where, all I know is that there *will* be a next one!!

    >Obliviously I would take out protection for your boyfriend so >he couldn’t be held responsible for me if there was an >accident, we should be able to work something out.

    Hmm, I’m not sure, is that necessary??
    >I’ll be moving to Melbourne round Xmas. Please consider
    from where???

    email mats (my BF) with your details and maybe you two can chat some time. his email address

    matsfrankl at yahoo dot com

    Hi MiniMogul and Mats

    Thanks for the reply and the positive response. My wife and I often talk of going to NZ but with two young ones are driving us up the wall, we’ll have to wait a year or two.
    It will be good to email Mats to get some reno tips when I need some advice on a job. Can you tell me where I can find info on the average or medium price of houses in Melbourne suburbs, some Mags or web site perhaps?
    We are living in Canberra at the moment. You to must be excited about going to NZ for property, next it’ll be the UK!
    Must go should be working ha ha. Talk soon

    Thanks Johnb
