I had my twitter account hacked.... similar user name to here and similar password as would be held by DIYnot (not anymore though)...
So can't point any fingers, but I think I know who it was.... and they'll be reading this !!!!!
Sad puppy.. !
As for your question Mike from London, why don't you ask god? he knows everything, surely !!!???
I know who it is, that is not the point, infact god gave me so much sense to work that out, and he gave you half the brains to come up with comments like that , We know it is that bloke's own daughter hijacked it to stop him getting stressed!
The point is why wouldn't then Microsoft acknowledge the genuine request to override her password and issue us with a temporary one.
This is where I will have to ask God's help as scientific idiots haven't got a single clue!
The real point is why can't god help us cure cancer !!!??????
Easy, God said stop smoking that Pot!
any ways here is how Microsoft checks one's id when signing in, unfortunately i can see where we went wrong, we did not use his regular PC, instead I used my laptop for him as his PC was not connected,he has been moving rooms. so when i used my laptop, this would have given them different OS, version, and possibly that 64bit number on my computer may be different to the one stored on his browser.
Signing into software, sites or services with your Microsoft account.
When you sign into a site or service using your Microsoft account, we collect certain information in order to verify your identity on behalf of the site or service, to protect you from malicious account usage, and to protect the efficiency and security of the Microsoft account service. For instance, when you sign in, the Microsoft account service receives and logs your credentials and other information, such as the 64-bit unique ID number assigned to your credentials, your IP address, your web browser version and a time and date. Further, if you use a Microsoft account to sign into a device or into software that is installed on a device, a random unique ID is assigned to the device; this random unique ID will be sent as part of your credentials to the Microsoft account service when you subsequently sign into a site or service with your Microsoft account. The Microsoft account service sends the following information to the site or service that you have signed into: a unique ID number that permits the site or service to determine whether you are the same person from one sign-in session to the next; the version number assigned to your account (a new number is assigned each time you change your sign-in information); whether your email address has been confirmed; and whether your account has been deactivated.
