I'll give it a shot knk! Logically it should work with your method as well, but we can never know for sure. I'll go test that right now smile

Tested it and Alt+Tab does not automatically press "Okay" for you smile Hurray for a fullscreen solution! Thanks for bringing it up.

I like having a fullscreen option. And my immediate idea of ctrl+alt+delete was not the smartest. Won't do that again. The email seemed to still be there when I came back and it probably wasn't good for the computer.


You folks are awesome for helping me. Seems like it's going to be a long road with this family! whistle I swear they are good people! heehee

I used to use ctrl+alt+delete because I didn't know about Alt+Tab blush definitely not the recommended shortcut to use!

It's okay! They always could've been framed by a co-worker or something shocked I do like to make excuses for my little peeps when I have to.

Ooh, I like that! Yup, I think it's false allegations or a frame-job. wink My people are good, honest, and hard-working. Sadly, they are constantly having things taken from them. They've had money taken from them a lot today too. frown

The worst fate my peeps had today was getting a serious infection >_< It was actually the child I plan to continue the family's next generation and she was heading towards the "Extremely Weak" zone!

The best thing that happened today was mastering one of my peeps' careers and getting the trophy! grin I would've cried if I accidentally accepted that horrible infringement e-mail before the promotion.

I do what knksmiles does as well, check my peep's progress before opening the email. If they are very near a promotion and a professional magazine is in the store, I buy it and give it to them to take them to the next level. Then I open the e-mail. One of my peeps lost progress for days because of that particular e-mail until I finally caught on.

I did nearly cry, especially the second time. I think I would have just closed the game forever if that had happened to me MissKathy.

Oh my thats not good I could see the Spammer or hacker losing a "pay Grade" so to speak but anything else no way.... LOL I have not had it happen yet that will suck when it does. But I won't reset the game because of it I will take the events as they come its part of the fun LOL... I just hope when it happens that my family has plenty of cash in the bank LOL....

The same trick can be used for

the tax man when he is naughty.

DrDan, I'm with you there. I just take them. lol In later gens you will have a lot of money and when the upgrades are done, losing career progress isn't a big deal as they usually max out at such an early age.
Someone (I think it was Arnie) posted in the careers and salaries thread that you can also use
Click to reveal..
Alt + F4 when in full screen to close the game.

Thanks for adding onto this BB! The more ways to avoid the tax man and career loss e-mails the better wink
