You didn't really do anything all that wrong. I'm guessing you linked your avatar to a picture you had stored in some personal MSN webspace. As you are probably always logged into MSN, you probably didn't get the login messages when everyone else did and so had no idea that this would be happening. It's arguable that those messages should not even have showed up. I'd say that is something that microsoft should have disabled or at least made sure that your email address didn't get automatically entered into the login box. It's an easy mistake to make, and it's not the first time I've seen something like this happen. Shame I wasn't around this weekend as I could have probably cleared up the confusion sooner

I think that is a fair assumption as to the cause of the problems. Another Microsoft "undocumented feature" in all likelyhood. ( the rest of the world calls them bugs)
