O.P. Huh?  Messenger under an hack attack?
Ok, maybe yoy will find it stupid but i need to know.

Yesterday a friend of mine with messenger 7.0 and under my contact list started to spread weird and very offensive message to me.

At first time i thinked that he was crazy but after a little i noticied that someone started to use "in remote" all contact list of him to send offensive message.

After some testing we found that the "bastard" can read all open chat windows of my friend too and interact with them but not with my contact list.

Another strange thing was that the avatar image vanished in all contact that me and my friend have in community.

Someone know how this "bastard"  can do it and how we can protect us from this kind of attack?
