Any ideas folks??? I have always been carefull to not click on the msn virus links so im stuck. Quote
Smudge Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Restart your computer again... probably work, failing that update or re-install MSN, your contacts are saved online not on the computer Quote

They seen to be deleted from the server end. Quote
Smudge Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 I've never heard of that happening before! e-mail live support maybe they can retrieve them? Quote
Gilly199 Posted February 6, 2010 Author Posted February 6, 2010 find out if a virus has sent any emails i think i have either been hacked or there is a virus somewhere. My mate sent me an email saying. "Good price on the E-mail buddy but my dad just got an I-phone." So all in all 1. contacts deleted (all of them) 2. phishing E-mails flood mailed to all my contacts probably containing another virus. NOT HAPPY Die pencil necked cyber twoc pots Quote
