Prolly a PPI no win - no fee outfit touting for business and, like most of them, not checking their fax first!

 Either that or they want to persuade you to cover your roof in solar panels.

When I got my first job in sales I got stuck with the desk that had the FAX machine on it...  noooo:

90% of the time my phone rang it was somebody wanting to send one... I had to connect it up to the machine and put photosensitive paper around a drum. The drum span round during receipt and a light source burnt the image onto it...

The only good thing about it was the secretarts all came to my desk to send them out....  eyes:

BM if it isn't already set up follow the instructions here:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Set-up-your-computer-to-send-and-receive-faxes (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Set-up-your-computer-to-send-and-receive-faxes)

Then you can send a polite fax back to their number telling them to stop.

Or a not so polite one like Barry at work sent to his brother when his phone/fax kept going to fax when he was trying to speak to him... "turn yer fucking fax off you bastard, Barry" scrawled across a sheet of A4  lol:
