Someone Has Hacked My Hotmail Email Address...

Hey guys, I'm desperately worried here so much so that my anxiety levels have gone through the roof!

I'm feeling nausea just typing this post.

I can still login to the email account no problems, but I'm worried that the person has access to my email address and can login and read my emails and so on without me knowing.

Is there any way I can check which IP addresses have logged into my Hotmail email account for the past few months?

Any help would be VERY MUCH appreciated!

Hello Nice and Shy,

I personally use KeePass.
It is basically a program that manages your passwords in an encrypted database.
You can learn more about it here: KeePass Password Safe
For example the password for my gmail is now 100 characters long including numbers, letters both uppercase/small and special characters.
By the time that password gets cracked, the sun has already consumed the Earth
But be aware: you MUST use a very good Master Password and not forget it; there is no backdoor or way around to open your database without it. I personally carry mine in a USB stick and I have it on DropBox so I can acces it with my android phone.

Just so you are aware, Nice and Shy does not trust companies other than Microsoft to access his data. It's in his other posts.

this page will tell you if anyone has attempted or logged into your account.. successful or not.

EDIT : didn't see someone already linked it.. my bad. :)

I think you are confusing KeePass with LastPass.

KeePass is open source & free. You are fully responsible for the storage of the file by yourself. ( You could even use Microsoft's OneDrive )
Also, it uses Rijndael 256 bits encryption, wich is considered to be very secure and became effective as a U.S. Federal government standard and is approved by the National Security Agency (NSA) for top secret information.

No, Nice and Shy is very specific. He won't run any non-Microsoft software in case it grants the authors some hidden 'access' to his data.
