Hi!

"KevinBri said:

Hi all-

We just wanted to update LiveSide's readers – We will NOT be revoking @live.com email addresses recently obtained by many of you."

Does this also apply for all *@live.* adresses or only *@live.com ?

(like *@live.de, *@live.no, *@live.uk and so on)

Thanks :)

Mr. Briody

What will happen when the full system is rolled out and everybody who has a hotmail account will get the "option" to transfer their hotmail.com account to a live.com account? Are the honest people going to be the victim because somebody else registered their current hotmail account as live.com the illegal way? I don't think people will be so happy with that, especially not businesses who would like to keep their name.

What i see here is bad behaviour being rewarded..by allowing these accounts to be kept you are in fact giving an OK sign to those who were honest and didn't abuse the system this time to go abuse if the possibility arises again.

Kevin for showing was valid that the Microsoft does not want to harm its image with the users who like its products \ services of Internet as @live.com, @msn.com and @hotmail.com, Windows Live Messenger and Windows Live Spaces Alone I wait the day that the Microsoft launches a better product that the Orkut. Ai when this to happen, I will be 100% Microsoft hehehe Because I only have the Gmail because of the Orkut. The Windows Live Spaces is very good, would have to improve the part to show the videos of the YouTube that not yet is good, does not function at least with me did not function since the first day that I tried until last week. If the Live Spaces to place a form to create communities, to have some improved things of the Orkut ai will be a site for social net of relationships perfect.

Kevin can leave that here the majority of the readers of the LiveSide is not spammers. I for example use the hotmail since 1996;) Clearly that I had that to make another email later therefore I finished losing the password it my first email hotmail it. But in the case this new email of @live.com I go to start to use in the month that comes hehe has that to bring up to date my contacts and to divulge the new email. But the good one and that now I am super happy with mine @live.com, therefore already was using the Windows Live Mail Beta with my email of @msn.com and estav very satisfied. Of certain form I found that gmail.com better

@Live addresses are safe (whew)
