I created a new screenname with MSN, a hotmail screenname, and sent it to my father and a friend. Both havent told anybody or sent me any emails or anything at all. About an hour of the new account being started, I got some request from someone I’ve never heard of before in some other part of the us. I knew none of their friends they listed, nor did I get the email they saw my msn name in. I also got a contact request thing from some other random person claiming that I invited them. Whats going on?!? Please help! If you have any comments, thoghts, questions, etc, PLEASE leave them! I would like to know whats going on! Im using win Xp, and bothe MSN version 7.5 and trillian. Thanks!!

well, depends of how “randomble” your emails were. u can just generate random emails and try to pick them up. i dont want to believe that there’s a hole of that size in msn… 🙂
