O/T Useful Hotmail information
Posted: Thu Aug 01, 2002 4:30 am
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).
