O.P. Another DUMB question
If i am logged on in MSN Messenger and open my mailbox in Hotmail simultaneously (which has different address than my MSN) does someone in MSN get to know if I access that other address? :S Just a strange question.

Of course there would be logs, so they could find out if they had a good reason to. (Eg. You are a murderer/drug dealer/etc.) 'Course they would still only do that if the Government asked them to.

Lol :D I have two accounts, the second has all of my web friends and the other account is my main one which I use for speaking with my girlfriend via email. So I became paranoid about it if someone in my msn contact list would get to know I use that e-mail account..

Maybe it just was a dumb question.. :$

So when you said "in MSN" you meant people on your contact list.

The answer would be: no, absolutely not. There is no way for them to know you are using another account unless you told them.

PS: When you say "someone in MSN" it is automatically assumed you mean the people who work for MSN, aka people at Microsoft who control the MSN servers, etc. This is the most logical and correct assumption. So, always try to use the proper terms when you ask questions; in this case: "contact list of MSN Messenger" . ;)

LooKa: plz don't spam
