MSN Hacker

    My MSN account recently got hacked into and the user has reset all passwords and everything. I assume he bypassed the password and managed to guess my secret answer. Just wondering, is there anyway around this as all my contacts are stored on that account and I have no backup for them. Even if I could just somehow close the account, at least he wouldnt be able to mess around with things.

    Thanks.

    Your old secret answer should still work, have you tried it?

    He changed it to his own secret answer. Btw if it makes any difference the hacker in question used to be a friend of mine, so I know he's gonna screw around with everyone I know thats on it.
