    MSN contacts keep disapearing

    about once a day for the last week or so, my msn contacts keeps being deleted from my list but then i get an add request from each of them instantly? ive asked a few of them and they havent sent the add requests

    it just happened there but the add requests havent appeared so ive basically lost the whole contact list

    any ideas of what the fuck this is?

    ive ran multiply virus checks and adware programs but nothing has been found. I've got a secure wireless connection and a strong firewall with constant anti virus

    not sure how to fix your problem, but you can save your contact list to a file if and when they appear again

    i can see you're online now, is it sorted?

    i had this problem today hew.

    my kid thought it was a good idea to download malware, fucked my system right up including MSN. re-installed it and it works fine now.

    although my firefox is being a right shifty bastard atm, constantly performing illegal operations at will.

    thinks its a crack dealer or sommit.

    ick.

    firefox was so secure a while ago, but now that google's pushing it as "the new standard" now, spyware and malware programmers are aiming for firefox now instead of IE. daft really.

    or of course "everyones got firefox now, so it isnt cool anymore"
