That's nice. Instead of a hacker having to seek and guess about your passwords, and credit card numbers, he'll be able to go straight to them. How thoughtful.

Well, eventually he'll get it so why fight it? Just do it and get it over with. Hopefully the card won't be overcharged so when you order pizza in 2008 there should be enough to put the pizza's on it.

Yeesh....speaking of Micro$oft, has anyone else recieve mails from an 'MSN account manager' saying they haven't received payment for their services and as such your accounts are suspended? (I only use hotmail as a spam attractor....keeps my other accounts meat by-product free)....for a start I wouldn't pay MS a penny for their disservice and only use their free stuff. Scam?

 

[Leslie]

I never got that one? I'd be wary of it.

See if you can log into hotmail to check your mail. If so, that should be a clue.

 

[Raven]

Heh, the fact that I was in my hotmail mailbox reading it while I was talking to someone on MSN tipped me off a little, but you never know with these people.....misdirected mails, account errors etc.

I think I got one of those and I don't use MSN,needless to say I was a might suspicious

What the hell is .net anyway? I don't use messenger, have it turned all the way off in fact & I don't use hotmail. The only reason I added it to my updates list is a ATI is requiring it for its new drivers/catalyst package.

That's kinda what I figured

I installed the update .net when it came out for 2000.
I thought I might get into programming in it, but I think, now
I'll just get rid of it.
I don't think I'll have time to learn it at least for a while,
and now I'm not even sure I want to. (maybe for my own piece of security mind)

sheesh, Linux is looking better all the time.
