Has anybody here had their hotmail account hacked before? Not by somebody else just pissing about, I mean when it comes up with 'suspicious activity' and spammers have hacked it to send out spam from your account?

It's never happened to me before when I tried signing on a while ago, it said I'd been blocked then directed me to the help page, told me to change my password which I did, and then it wouldn't let me log in because it was still blocked. I can't even make an account to ask on the forum thingy to get it sorted because it won't let me sign in, plus I've lost pretty much all of my contacts apart from about 5 because I have some random chat logs saved to my computer.

On the plus side, I've always prefered using gmail for my e-mails but hotmail just seemed simpler for me to use for everything because I'd had that account for about 8 years, so I've just spent about an hour changing my email on absolutely everything I use to gmail.

So yeah, has anybody successfully got their account back before? I'm not too bothered about it, it's just if something important was e-mailed to that one from somewhere I forgot I put that e-mail down, I'd be ****ed.
