Something weird happened with my hotmail last night
Firstly my msn stopped working, it said my password was incorrect but I could still get my emails
But then my emails stopped working too, password incorrect.
Reset my password and changed my security question and everything is working again
Now I only ever log in on my own mac, phone or iPad. Never anywhere else and my password is completely different to any other I use
Also when I got my emails back I couldn't see anything suspicious
Have I been hacked?
Should I be worried?

Check to see there isn't a secondary email that you don't recognise in your account settings.
If there is a secondary email and it's yours then make sure you change the password for that account too (and also the accounts of any secondary emails to that account )

Alot of ppls hotmails were hacked not long ago, incl. mine. A few of my mates got virus' due to clicking on links from my addy that I didn't even send.
