Could something be wrong with those, since I have about 12Gb of those?
I would like to get rid of them to save space on a crowded disk.
I also have a series of Office 2008 files hanging in a similar place, although I have upgraded to Office 2011 long time ago - can all these files (the directory calle Office 2008 Identities) just be discarded?
thanks
To the administrators of Microsoft Hotmail and the manufacturers of affected Android devices:
On behalf of the many thousands of your loyal customers that are currently unable to productively use their Hotmail accounts via the default email app on their Android devices, I am pleading with you to work together to resolve this issue, which appears to have been ongoing now for a number of months.
We have all purchased these devices or signed up for long term plans in good faith and with the understanding that they will provide fully functioning and operational convenience and productivity tools as promoted. If these tools fail due to a lack of communication between vendors (i.e. Microsoft and Android device manufacturers) we are all left at your mercy - At least until the groundswell of absolute frustration forces one of your customers to approach the news media, or some other public forum, to air their grievances.
I do not know who is at fault here, Microsoft for making changes to their Hotmail environment with no apparent notification to device vendors, or the device vendors for not implementing the EAS standard correctly? Quite frankly, I don’t care. I simply want you all to shake hands, agree there is an issue which is affecting a very large number of your customers and get to work on fixing it quickly!
For the record, the recurring suggestion to use the “Official Hotmail” app is simply not acceptable. Whether Microsoft likes it or not, the default email apps provided by most Android device manufacturers tend to provide much better functionality and have a much better user interface. At best, I would accept the suggestion to use the Hotmail app as a very temporary workaround until such time as the real issue is resolved.
As I can’t think of a way to send an open email to both responsible parties, I have resorted to addressing both Microsoft and the Android device vendors in this forum. Be advised that I have already sent a similar email to HTC (The manufacturer of my Android phone, a HTC One XL) and I will also send a copy of this text to the Asia/Pacific Public Relations email address of HTC.
I will also search through all the Questions in the Microsoft Answers forum relating to this issue and direct as many of them as I can to this question.
I look forward to your response and a prompt resolution to this issue for all concerned.
Regards,
Steve.
Original Title : Virus
I have a problem with Windows Hotmail account. It is telling me that I have sent a "private message" to most in my address book however I haven't. It appears to be a virus however the microsoft scanner and Bullguard scanner are not identifying it. What do I do?
Want to know if Microsoft sends out "security notices" directly to consumers. If so, how can we be sure it is from them and not some scammer.
Also want to know how to remove it when one has a security issue (actually several) with Microsoft and various other companies.
How can I be sure that it is being corrected. I have several issues to cover and really do not want to send an email to the world. If Microsoft
hears about this, as I feel they should be aware of it all, I think they should be interested at least
Thank you for any help you can provide.

It worked once, and two days later, which was about a week ago. It stopped working again, and I repeated this process to see If I could fix it again. But it failed to work a second time. I really need help with this... Thanks.
