  • Hey it is Andy and john the directors of MSN, sorry for theinterruption but msn is closing down. this is because too many inconsiderate people are taking up all the name (eg making up lots of different accounts forjust one person), we only have 578 names left. If you would like to close your account, DO NOT SEND THIS MESSAGE ON. If you would like to keep youraccount, then SEND THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST. This is no joke, we will be shutting down theservers. Send it on, thanks. WHO EVER DOES NOT SEND THIS MESSEAGE, YOUR ACCOUNT WILL BE CLOSED AND YOU WILL COST £10.00 A MONTH TO USE.

    I didn't believe this, but from july 1 will you need to pay for using MSN. To avoid this to send this as a copy to at least 18 people, then you will get a e-mail and your green online person will turn into blue.

    make a copy of this e-mail and send it to your friends!
