    its probably your mail server at fault rather than windows mail. user name and password should be the same as your isp gave you

        might be worth doing a "forgotten password" request, from MSN. i had a similar problem when i logged on to live mail on two different computers at the same time. the box kept coming up as the two comps tried to log on. its just possible someone has got hold of your password. maybe even some malware, already using your account. i know there is something going round, on messenger live mail, atm. i keep getting adverts for weight loss product from a contact in my messenger list. he has spent some time trying to get rid of the bug.
