Windows Live Bug - Very Funny

I never used my windows live id for communication, as i feel comfortable with my gmail Id. After a long time, i was forced to use my windows live id, for accessing msdn forums. I tried signing up with my usual name harishsyndrome. I got an error, stating "Id Already Exists". Am sure no one uses the nick name harishsyndrome.So i tried recovering the password for harishsyndrome@live.com. I clicked recover password. The screen was as shown below




Windows Live asks me to select an email id to which it would send the reset instruction.
They are
1. harishsyndrome@live.com
2. Alternate email - I provided.



The first option was shocking but funny at the same time. They are sending the password reset instructions to the email, for which i lost the password. How i can i open the email Id.


Infected with Harish Syndrome

How to get rid of phishing sites

Some one is trying to play with me. Am not the one whom they are looking for. Recently i received a mail with a name PAYPAL . The mail is apparent that , this is some kind of fraud. No special knowledge is required to identify a phishing site. Just look around the mail for suspicious information. Some critical clues The Contents of the mail is as Follows 1. In Sender address - the domain name is other than paypal(i.e it is not support@paypal.com ) 2. The mail is found in SPAM folder 3. The Mail greets me as Dear PP member .
