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

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