Dunno. Most of the time, I answer with random numbers and letters..... |

It's really easy. And that's a BIG problem. ANYBODY can hijack your MSN or Hotmail if they know answer to your secret question (if you live in USA, they need to know something else too, I don't remember what. But it's still easy) |

I'm very sure there are some programs that can log you out and or do specific things on your MSN, I don't think they're able to get your password though. |

Is it possible for MSN messenger to be hijacked? Overnight I've lost half of my contact list, a dozen other people's names have been added and the rest blocked. I haven't got a clue as to how or why, maybe you guys do!
Some technical specs: XP Home (with SP1) I'm using Firefox 0.9, my dad uses IE6 (shame on him). MSN version 6.2 (I think, could be 6.1) with MSN plus version 3.01.94 |
