Last summer I set up a new MSN Messenger account on my own computer for a
friend because they were having problems creating an account. Last week I was
exploring and came upon "Windows" messenger. Never having used this I clicked
on and discovered I was automatically signed into this account created months
ago. Now this person thinks I have deliberately hacked into their account. I
have had XP since it came on the market and because I utilize Yahoo and MSN
Messenger exclusively, I never thougtht to use Windows Messenger, let alone
knew it existed. Is the reason I had access to this account because it was
created on my computer? No, I have not accessed it again! Once was all it
took to have a friend believe I was a hacker !

When they used your PC they logged on to Windows Messenger and told it to
remember their password and username.
