ok.. so I was browsing around and I found a site, called you-areblocked.com. And I wanted to see who had blocked me. Well, I was being a dumbass and entered my msn addy and password... then it changed my msn display name on messenger (which I fixed) and there really is no problem with anything except... it won't let me on my msn hotmail account. Everytime I try to go to the login page, the address bar keeps acting funny, and when it does get there, it says that there is a problem, and windows cannot sign me in at this time.

So I went to my mum's computer and managed to change my password on it. Everything looked fine when  logged in.... I did research and found out it's a 'phishing" site..

everything else is fine, my comp isn't beng buggy, but I want to get into my email on this comp, not my mum's.

what should I do? x.X please help

i'm on mac btw

Just change your password.  Go to the Forgot Password link wherever you sign in and have them email you a new password.

If all else fails, call Microsoft.

you first need to download an anti-virus software to make sure thats not the only thing it changed.

Then you need to scan and see if you can delete the virus.

Then you need to change your password for your msn screenname.

Then you need to copy the link to the site and report it to MSN because this actually is illegal.

Are you still using the phishing page or something?

Try http://login.live.com

If that doesn't work then your computer likely has malware or some file has been modified to redirect you off the real site. Download and run Ad-Aware and a good virus scanner (like NOD32, from thepiratebay.org), and make sure that your hosts file in %systemdrive%/windows/system32/drivers/etc/ has nothing after "127.0.0.1 localhost" line.
