Microsoft sues alleged instant-message spammers Seattle Post Intelligencer

Microsoft alleges that a Hong Kong-based company has been obtaining the usernames and passwords of Windows Live Messenger users, using those to hack into Microsoft's system and users' accounts, scraping their contact information, and using those contacts to continue the bulk spamming.

The company, Funmobile Ltd., allegedly sends an instant message that appears to be from the e-mail address of a person's Windows Live contact, Microsoft says. The message contains a link to a Web site that requires users to enter their Windows Live log-in information. Then it redirects to an adult Web site or bogus social network for Windows Live users.

Spam sent by instant message - or IM - is known as "spim."

"Such abuse of the Windows Live Messenger service harms Microsoft and our customers by burdening Microsoft's computers and computer systems with spim traffic, interfering with users' enjoyment of our services and invading the privacy of our users," Tim Cranton, associate general counsel at Microsoft, wrote in a blog post .

On Being Single in Midlife

My midlife friend Allison Allen posed a question that got me thinking. In Amazing Grays, I write about the importance of grieving various life transitions, and the real or perceived losses that often accompany them.

Her question was: For midlife women not in a committed relationship, how do we come to grips with what might be lifelong singleness? How do we grieve that?

Turning that question over and over in my mind, I was once again struck with how much misery we can unintentionally create for ourselves by wishing things were different than they are. We often miss the opportunity of the moment because we get tripped up by what we think is “supposed to be.”

You can read my response to her question at womenbloom.com. I’d love to hear your take on the issue!
