Also change your information such as the question (mothers maiden name), favorite color. When you change the password, is there another e-mail address attached to the hotmail account...and is that account hacked (meaning, he might have access to that account as well.

Lastly, you may need to do a scan with a good antivirus/malware program because it's also possible you have a keylogger or something monitoring any other computer you're using that could log into hotmail.


Also make sure you log out. Don't just close the window or go to another site. This keeps your account logged in and makes it easier to hack.

Another thing is, are you using another site or program to view the e-mails? For example, google has some gadgets that will allow you to check your hotmail without actually going to hotmail. These gadgets are easily hacked and someone can get your info that way to.
