On Pins and Needles Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 I haven't had that problem but I got a message on my msn account the other day, it said "no sender, no message" and it was dated 12/31/69. What!!? I'm with you, so afraid of idiots who have nothing better to do than mess with us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Conquest Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 If you've had the same password for ten years, you really should change it. You're tempting the fates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenie123 Posted September 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 its kind of my point ,same password and no issues ,kind of like it aint broke dont fix it ,I am a slow learner but smart enough to know whoever wants me to change it is only persistant for a few days and them go find someone else but its a bit confusing with all the new app. stuff ,I dont even text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda G. Craig Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 I use hotmail and haven't had any problems at all. If I were you, I would be concerned that it really is sent to you by hotmail and not someone who is trying to hack into your files, and is therefore trying to get your password. I'd make very, very sure that I am dealing with the right people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandmaLKB Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 Changing your passwords now and then is a good thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmquilt Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 I just had my yahoo email hacked. It sent spam to everyone on my contact list. I hadn't changed my password in .... umm a long time/ever. Trust me it is worth changing your password so all your contacts don't get spam.

K. Szymaszek Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 my neice was visiting this summer and wanted to share" Groupons" with me, also download Skype so she could visit with family back home. I don't know if it was one of those or letting her hook up to her computer via mine but I get tons of junk mail now. Really frustrated. I think I'll think twice before letting anyone use my computer again. Any suggestions on how to remedy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
