Talking Hotmail tip...

If you use HotMail, I have figured out a way to code the URL so it goes in directly (without having to type in the username and password each time).

This works if you can create your own links somewhere (or if you know or can figure out how to change a Favourite's shortcut address).

*** Saving it somewhere makes it insecure - other people can use it if they can find it - but if this is not the case it could be very convenient.

Simply replace "**username**" and "**password**" in the following URL with your own username and password, Copy/Paste into a browser window (if you would be keeping it, Bookmark it or save it to Favourites before you use it, otherwise it changes) and watch it go...

** You need to copy the URL to Notepad from this page first, make the four lines into one (don't erase any characters!!), then make changes...

https://loginnet.passport.com/ppsecure/post.srf?login=**username**&passwd=**password**&domain=ho
tmail.com&svc=mail&RemoteDAPost=https://login.ms
nia.passport.com/ppsecure/post.asp

Obviously I have no control over - and therefore take no responsibility for - anything you may do with this tip... but I hope you use it in good health!!

You can do all sorts of things with hotmail urls.

Thats how i think some of the "how to get someones hotmail password" things work. You enter those details, but also your password again some where else in the url ,and some ones elses email address, and they have your password...............

And some people use hotmail.........
