Lost Password
Cant remember for the life of me my hotmail password or the answer to my secret question. Does anyone know a way I can hack into my own account?

Re: Lost Password
I remember back in the day I used to be able to brute-force http based logins, but I am sure hotmail has tweaked their system from 5-6 years ago.
Also, you didn't fill in an optional email address? I think the main purpose of this is so you can retrieve your password if it gets lost. Also, what type of secret question did you pick that you cannot remember the answer to? |

Re: Lost Password
I do not know if it is even possible to contact support for your free hotmail account. I think you are screwed.

Recently I forgot my password to some trash account, and the secret question I set so many years ago was "qu35t10n?" I had no idea what the hell I was talking about, until I realized that the answer was "4n5w3r." I definitely got a kick out of it; it was like a joke I setup for myself years ahead of time.

Did I miss a green beard for St Patty's day? Any plans for a Memorial day avatar like giving Sam a berret? lol. |
