Could someone please put a stop to my constant pondering for once and for all!
This is quite lengthy!
Right.
Here's some useless info which DOES lead to my question.
I decided to block my Ex boyfriend on MSN about 6 months ago when we had been broken up for a month or so. (I did this to help the recovery process haha).
Anyway, I guess he didnt approve because one day I logged into MSN and he had disappeared from my contact list!
I bumped into him a few weeks later and exclaimed that he deleted me from MSN to which ge replied in a "sorry" manner "i know! :("
He didnt even wonder how I KNEW he had deleted me (because i THINK that if you delete a contact yourself on MSN, you are still on their contact list, right?).
Anyway in the following weeks I performed an experiment with my friend..i deleted her from both my hotmail AND MSN account to see if I disappeared from her MSN contact list...we left it a few days to see if I would be deleted instantly or not, but I STILL remained on her list 3 days later.
So the main question is : is it possible for a contact on YOUR MSN contact list to miraculously dissapear if the other person has deleted YOU.
By the way, this guy managed to hack into HIS friend's myspace account too... mainly because he knew the password, but he didnt know mine for my hotmail, - it's not an easy guess which i why im having a hard time understanding why his name dissapeared.
(it may sound stupid) but IS it more than likely the idiot hacked my hotmail account?!
This was my first thought but then I attempted to consider other possibilities.
(if he DID hack..that was the only strange thing to happen, everything else was totally normal within both accounts!)
Apologies for the lengthy description but i feel I'm never articulate enough!
Thankyou!

Now, he COULD have hacked into your account and removed himself, BUT my MSN goes weird all the time and some of my friends have just "disappeared" before for some unexplained reason.
Are you absolutely sure there's NO way he could have known your password? Hacking's not very easy. Unless you have something which "steals" passwords - which anyone can download, really. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
