Strange MSN Messenger Alert!!

[cway]

Can someone please tell me why I get the following MSN Messenger Alert:
"You have signed in to Messenger on another computer. Click here to sign in again."
So I click on it and it either (sometimes) shuts down, or restarts!!
Just started doing it.
As far as I know, I am the only user on my Account.

Thx in advance!!

It means exactly what it says mate!

Someone is signing into your account on another computer!
For example if you sign into msn and then try signing in on windows messenger you will get that same message.

Id just change your password and if it stops happening then you know why!

Thanks for your help jonny_uk....
I changed my password....then uninstalled MSN Mess, restarted, then reinstalled it. It hasn't happened since.

Appreciate the help!!

I'd run a few spyware scans on your computer... someone got your login information in one way or another, make sure that's all they got.

Thx for your help Dngrsone....
Is there a way to mark this post as SOLVED??

umm that might not be the problem.....ok....well problem could also be...that Windows Messenger has signed you in on the same computer you are using MSN Messenger on....to be on the safe side go Start > Control Pannel > Add or Remove programs > Add/Remove Windows Components > Untick Windows Messenger > Click Next and it will uninstall

once you have done this you should no longer get this problem
