V-Tech Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 This is getting out of control. Can you guys tone it down before microsoft shuts down all the accounts created? I agree with u but have u any idea on how much forums/website this thing is being talked about ? This is not the only place ppl do it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quick Shot Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I agree with u but have u any idea on how much forums/website this thing is being talked about ? This is not the only place ppl do it . I just don't want to lose my @live account. i originally found the trick on another website but yeah. maybe neowin should set an example and calm down.

Maybe neowin should but still , this is such a big thingy that i doubt ppl will stop talking about it untill MS will close this or something else will happen . Like other users here already said , this is something that happens 1ns in a livetime probebly so what can u do . But in general ye, i wouldnt want them 2 close my account aswell of course .

GamerZ Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 i wonder when will they fix this exploit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V-Tech Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 i wonder when will they fix this exploit. Well , i have the feeling that they know about and do nothing . I dont belive that so many users open so many accounts and they dont know about it , maybe it's there way 2 get it to the public and test it all or i donno what but i doubt that they dont know about it and wouldnt fix it by now .

GamerZ Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 i also thought so too, i was just afraid it will just take back the account =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V-Tech Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I really dont think that they will close/delete/kill the new accounts that was opened with the javascript thingy . It would just be tomuch work for them i think . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiftie Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Question is, if you was to use the so called "Other Domains" would you just access it via the Live service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope , the only place u can use them is login to the WLM but u have no access to the email part of this address so it's mostly waist of time .

»X« Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Theres an annoying bug Ive found with live. At first I thought it was the new email I got, but it does it on the old. Can someone confirm it? Login to the email and then click the contacts. They appear but the bottom left shows " Working on your request... " and it doesnt change. In fact It dont do much else, not even log out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guruparan Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Naaaaaa , dont delete it ... Use it and worse case they will delete ur account but i dont think that it will happen .

RT Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Cool it works fine - I'm gonna wait a week or so and if my account is still active then I'm gonna move everything to that account and use it as main, as I can just use my first name! :p Oh, and you can switch back to Hotmail if you want too by the options in live mail !
