    Nope, so far gmail haven't ask me to change my password, so I guess I'm safe, haven't enter my email and password in any website other than ebuddy and msn password is different than the actual email one :p

    Hotmail is improving, but gmail is the best.

    i agree gmail is amazing, it's so light and gives u so much storage. so simple to use, i use hotmail for msn but gmail is my normal e-mail. tbh i had it from the beta stages, by that straight from the start where u had to get an invite.

    Hotmail is one of the most if not hte most popular email to use, and by people wanting to hack MSN i am not surprised

    I use hotmail for convenience and the fact I have used it for so long i can't be arsed to change it as atm I don't use my email much for anything apart from applying for work experience. My university uses gmail which is good coz its a lot more simple than hotmail and the fact that u dont have all the unnecessary adverts coming up

    not as bad as your spam

    it wasn't hacked, just silly/clueless people going on random sites trying to access their email from it because the site claims to tell them who has blocked them on msn if they enter their details...

    oh rite.
