(Disclaimer: I posted this same question (but slightly different) at GameTZ, but this forum has a very different userbase, not to mention most of you guys are pretty awesome. So I figured I'd post this here too.)
This is a bit of an odd question, but I need some answers.
I have a lot of friends that insist on using MSN Messenger. I've kept my old MSN account around in case they need to contact me, but over the years I've noticed their accounts keep getting hacked into by spambots... hell, my best friend had his twelve year old email account hijacked by some jackass who found his username / password posted on a Russian "hacker" forum.
I ask this because I've been thinking of using a catch-all contact email at Live. Mostly because the Gmail and Yahoo alternatives were already taken, Live was the only one I managed to grab when it went uh, live. I don't want some h4x0r d00d who grabbed random tools off the internet to hack into it and end up wiping everything or something. I tried googling but all I got were sites that offered hacking tools... dammit.
So... any comments? Or should I try another free email provider?
