This is very useful info for all Hotmail users, I certainly wasn't aware of it before:

Please take note!! This IS TRUE.
Companies such as MSN have done underhanded things.
Did you know that about 2 months ago MSN added 2
little boxes in all our profiles. These boxes if
marked shares your email with other users. One box,
if ticked, gives other people the right to see your
information including your address. Now MSN has
taken all the passports that were created before
they added this and marked YES SHARE MY INFORMATION
and did not tell anyone.!!!!

HOW to remove your name:

Sign into your email account (for those with more
then 1 you have to do it for all of them), click
on OPTIONS then PERSONAL PROFILE and scroll
to the bottom ... u will see the TWO added boxes
- remove the check marks and update it.
PLZ FWD this to everyone who has hotmail
- lets not wait until it is too late (this may
decrease all that junk mail that seems to have
doubled lately).

Well done & thanks

You don't actually input *real* details into your web-based mail accounts, do you?

How naive! Let 'em have your IP address, by all means, but just don't give them your address and personal name. Give 'em your worst enemy's instead, that way *they* get all the junk mail posted to them...

Nice one Hornet
your not so green
cheers

I don't and I'm not speculating as to whether anyone else does either. I just found this out this morning and thought it was worth sharing especially if it cuts your spam intake down somewhat!!!

yes, evidently i`m a 46 year old bus driver from crewe, where in fact in real life i`m a..........

Bus driver? Weren't you in a couple of Uncle Ben's productions?

For this relief much thanks, Hornetbloke. Perhaps it will also stop all those Nigerians from asking to rest their millions in my bank account.

The Septics seem to think it's their God-give right to advertise, and nothing as fundemental as confidentiality or privacy laws should get in their way.

I had an email from Nigeria recently but none since I sent a 5987kb reply! Ironically the reply address was a yahoo.co.uk addy.

Thanks a million

Could not understand where all the junk mail for Rape & Animal
sex sites were coming from.

Now starts the dirty business of unsubscribing from the disgraceful sites

cheers
