Re: Hotmail accounts ...
and it covers the accounts hotmail.com, msn.com and live.com
"[We] can confirm the accounts are genuine and most appear to be based in Europe," Tom Warren, a neowin blogger, wrote on the site. He said that the list included details of Microsoft's Windows Live Hotmail accounts with email addresses ending hotmail.com, msn.com and live.com. Microsoft said it had "been made aware of the claims that Windows Live IDs and passwords have been made available on the web". "We're actively investigating the situation and will take appropriate steps as rapidly as possible," a spokesperson said. Neowin said that it recommended Windows Live Hotmail users to change their "password and security question immediately". Hotmail is currently the largest web-based email service. thats from the bbc website

Re: Hotmail accounts ...
an old favourite is an email saying you can see who has blocked you from msn and you get told to enter your details when you follow the link or install a small application, the second you do that they own your email account but some peoples curiosity gets teh better of them and they cant resist trying to see who has blocked them on tehir precious wittle msn lol
