Now I know a lot of people use this so I thought I'd mention it here...

Apparently there is a security problem with MSN that could potentially let a hacker read a file on your computer.

Microsoft have fixed it. Don't know if the program will update itself but you can get the new version at http://messenger.msn.com/

Also don't forget Windows Update for all Windows security updates.

Thanks James, I'm using version 6.1 already so hopefully I should be ok

The e-mail from Microsoft said that both versions 6.0 and 6.1 were affected.

I've read now that it will auto-update next week. There's a new version of 6.1 available now though.

Thanks for that James
