could have possibly been some sort of virus i really dont know, or something completly different, just when she couldnt sign into MSN thats when something clicked

At least you are doing something about fixing the problem this time?

Jeus dude, saw your original post about this.

Give me her email address and i will try to obtain the hotmail account back for you. As fraud/theft has been involved MSN will be likely to act quicker and try to trace the culprit. More than likely, if he knows what he is doing, he is using a proxy (or two) before going to hotmail, so it could be a long winded investigation. I think owners of proxy servers have to release information if the service is being used to commit a crime. Would need tom provide details when he was using the account.

So what do people use for email if not hotmail, if you dont have one from your isp what can you use?

Gmail or Googlemail as it's called in the UK.

her dad once had his details stolen, and the person started using a gambling site, as soon as 2 or 3 transactions come out in quick succesion the bank pick up on this in ring you straight away, luckily he won so her dad was up lol

Gambling transactions are viewed differently to any other transactions, so can sometimes be stopped much more quickly.
