O.P. RE: Unsolicited invites
Thanks, everyone, for your feedback. That includes you, Sunshine, and my apologies for being so short. I was in a rush to go out of town, and found it frustrating that the only answer I got (to that point) was saying to do what I was already doing.
It's cold comfort, yet still comfort, to know that it's not "just me". Something's definitely going on. It's also good to know that MS is doing "something" about it (as stated in that article Sunshine linked to).
FWIW, I have done nothing different recently, and have NEVER accepted any of those bogus invitations, and have ALWAYS reported them (I'm in the field of Information Security).
Actually, I'm afraid to say, even though I've been with MSN/Live/Hotmail since inception, I don't use Messenger much anymore, and use something else for my email (Hotmail feeds into it). I mainly use my account for signing into MS services like TechNet and the like.
