Title: MSN/Hotmail problem Post by: Longy on November 20, 2008, 09:00:58 PM I have just checked my hotmail account and have had something send a message to a lot of my contacts, some spam entitled re:friend. When i logged onto my msn account all my contacts have been delted from msn and hotmail.
This is obv slightly concerning what is my course of action? fwiw i don't remember downloading anything dodgy and all my poker accounts are attached to a different email addy. Title: Re: MSN/Hotmail problem Post by: StuartHopkin on November 21, 2008, 12:13:01 PM Very strange longy
Theres loads of stuff that mucks about in your outlook/email programs but ive not heard of anything affecting web-based mail and msn. Id be emailing their support asap Dont hold your breath though, their reponses are about as useful as a chocolate teapot, but not as tasty obv.
