Strange way to waste one's time!

So the little menage a' trois we discussed earlier is probably a no go?:( Nobody wants to read a diary by someone who has not seen the shadow of Bubba on the prison shower wall in front of them!

They carefully reset the machines to the lowest settings, offer to spot for each other on the 5 lb dumbells, and rediscover the art of macrame while attempting to jump rope. -Roger Wright on my colleagues and I going to gym each day at lunch

I'm feeling all left out here :| Ahh, I just noticed you used your hotmail addr when you joined my forum :) Is it ok if I add you tonight? (It'd be nice to have a few CPians amongst my contacts) Out of interest, have you worked out if the hacker is a random person, or if it was someone who actually knows you (in the latter case, it may just be a friend having a joke with you, as they didn't touch your email or change your password) Was your old password the kind of thing that someone who knew you well would be able to guess? -- Help me!

Unlikely - I use random letters which can be pronounced into a word for easy remembering. Also, I usually interject a couple of the letters with similar looking numbers. Usually at least 9 characters in length too. This makes me think it makes more sense that it would be someone who knew me, otherwise it was a lot of effort for nothing. On the other hand, I really don't know who :confused:

I've got loads of friends who only use MSN during the day (as they're far too busy having real lives to sit at a computer when they're at home) so I hardly ever get to talk to them :| Megan Forbes wrote: I use random letters So someone just brute force hacked into your account (either totally at random, or because they know you.) Bizarre. Maybe you should change your MSN screen name to "did I say anything strange wednesday night?" and see if anyone replies. Another thought - have you used MSN on someone else's computer? (or on a public netcafe computer, for example) - it could be that they've got MSN running in the background, and have no idea it's still signing on as you (or was doing, till you changed your password) -- Help me!

Both - I'm online all the time except travelling between home and work, and sleeping. Sad huh? benjymous wrote: Another thought - have you used MSN on someone else's computer? (or on a public netcafe computer, for example) No - haven't had any reason to. All very odd. Perhaps I have a stalker :~

Messenger is banned here too, but IT don't enforce it on my team. We're in their good books. :) I'm signed in most evenings...Messenger is how I keep in touch with the friends (not all UK based) I've met since I started my journey. :) Anna :rose: www.annasplace.me.uk

Megan Forbes wrote: Time for a policy change Hmm, yeah. Well "officially" we're not even allowed to send personal email, though that's rarely ever enforced. I used to run ICQ (as that happily worked through the firewall) but I eventually got complained at for that (not in any official way, just a "probably not a good idea to be seen running that" kinda thing) -- Help me!
