Question re email
Greetings Terri,
Assuming your Windows Live ID is based on your ISP e-mail address, you actually don't need to do anything -- your address will continue working. However, Microsoft does provide the option to reset your password based on your e-mail address and as such, if someone else from that ISP took the same name, they could in theory take over your account. However, the Windows Live ID site can actually change your e-mail address to avoid this problem (and transfer your Messenger contacts for you). This can be done he https://account.live.com/ChangeId.aspx -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2007 Jonathan Kay.
