Windows messenger keeps logging out (logged in at another location)

Featured Replies

Started last night.

Logged out saying I was logged in somewhere else. So I immediately changed password via my phone.

Tonight it's doing the same, and has done a number of times. It used to tell me where I was logged in, but now it's not.

Anyone else had this issue? No other devices I use are on, or currently logged in. Just this machine

It is because you have a hotmail account (assumption) and did not notice when it asked you to auto sign in to messenger.

Go into messenger options and select allow sign in from multiple locations, that will sort it.

Steve Ballmer is watching you.

Nope. Dont use Hotmail, although it self activated when I changed password, have now killed it again.

You may have been hacked, mate. It happened to my misses. They changed her passwords for hotmail and facebook. Took ages for her to get control back cos they'd changed her secret questions too.

The initial change should have sorted that.

To be sure, but after posting I enabled log me out of everywhere else and again changed the password.

I am unclear as to what wether you are saying this has cured the problem or its just something you have tried?

I think this has now fixed it.
