Heya,

Got access to a Hotmail account. I need the answer to the secret question (Question: Ditt första husdjur, or his first pet) for access to another account relating to this person.

Is there any way to recover the answer to the CURRENT secret question in the Hotmail account? Or can you ONLY change it?

Thanks.

Heh, got it.

I sent him a spoofed email from another service he was using that had the same password and secret question. I made an official looking email that said his account had been compromised, and asked a variety of questions to recover the account. Smile

One of the questions was his secret question... I checked his sent items after he had read it, and there it was. Very Happy
