Hi all,
Some chump has hacked my hotmail email account so If I don't answer your email or am not online then you know why.
I've emailed Microsoft but I am dubious I will get a reply and if I do that they will help me.
Which sucks balls!
You can still reach me via other popular IMs and by PM'ing me.

Please say your joking
I'm not really in the mood for jokes there are important details in there and I've spent all morning cancelling cards and emailing people.
Sorry if it is a joke and I'm just being rude not having a very good day!

Sorry if it is a joke and I'm just being rude not having a very good day! My joke was : Who would be twattish enough to hack someone's personal hotmail account? There is nothing to gain but junk emails. Sorry to hear you're having a bad day man!  |

That sucks man, hope you get it sorted. Have you heard the stories about Steam hacking? Imagine spending loads of cash on Valve games to have your fecking Steam account hacked, I would be peed off with that to no end.

Yep thats the thing, password cracking is very easily done (I'm a network admin/analyst so know lots about this kind of stuff), the best way to protect yourself is to use enforced passwords, use made up words with both numbers and symbols in them.
Password crackers use brute force dictionary methods, and many people use simple passwords such as their name etc.

I used both numbers and letters.
I don't think MSN accepts symbols in passwords

I don't believe it does either, it's sort of a safety, considering people might use like © and forget how to produce is a second time and vúla complain to Microsoft.

What? MSN dont allow the use of symbols? I'm an Active Directory Guru and when you first implement AD Windows 2003 the first thing it does is turn on Enforced Passwords! Just seems odd for MS to not allow symbols etc! Kinda goes against their security mentality really!
