    I think your system is infected with spyware. Install Nod32 and MalwareBytes on your Computer and do a full scan.

    There is no solution for this, unless you change your MSN password.

    This has nothing to do with virus or spyware infection.

    You have probably entered your email and password to some 3rd party website, and they have stored it. Now they use your account to spam with their affiliate links.

    Just a hint; never submit your email address to these sites where you supposed to see friends who blocked you. Even if they say they won't store it.

    Have you ever been on uNk or HackHound ? If not - it's time to check them out ! Skype/Yahoo/MSN bots ( message flooders, etc. ) are available for everyone .. If you want to be safe, use at least 1 good firewall !

    It is a spyware/malware. The phishing thing is a whole different danger.

    Did you read my post?

    Once again, at this stage it has nothing to do with an infection. No matter if his PC is infected or not, if they have stored his password, including email address.

    It could be an infection that could send those links, but he mentioned that his MSN goes offline which means someone else (a bot, based on web application) is using his address.

    To make it clear, give me your password of your MSN, and we see what your firewall + super router can do. If I login, you will go offline.

    Are you making fun of me? Did you read my very first post in this thread? Who is talking about forums?

    Google for "msn who blocked me".

    And you will notice 10000 sites similar to: http://www.blockyell.com/inv/en/

    I hope Alexa rank; 29.000 tells you enough about how many people submit details there.

    Ah, forget about it :D No one will login into your MSN account - it would be the same as playing with your babies toys ! If someone will want to spread some sh**, he will hire a coder and make a trojan daddy ! Your way of thinking is a bit ancient - there are tons of ways on how to do it.
