It's spam (unwanted advertising) trying to lure you into looking at scantily clad women in photographs, in the hopes that you would then provide them your credit card number to purchase access to pornography.

BTW, to "MSN message" someone means to send them an Instant Message with MSN Messenger, a program for sending Instant Messages.

If it is junk then don't reply just delete it and block the senders email address. MSN is an instant messaging service much like email but "instant" so it works more like a conversation in text. to use MSN you must download it and then if someone you know has it ask them to give you there address which you can add to your MSN account. This will allow you to MSN or instant message each other when you are both online at the same time

You download the program put your msn/hotmail email into the place where it says too and your password for the email. You don't have to talk to anyone you don't want too, and you can block people too. Nobody sends you junk mail asking you to msn message you. I use it and its a great way to keep in touch with friends.

MSN is a messenger service just like Yahoo, except you get it from MSN.com instead of yahoo.com You can message msn users from Yahoo by putting their email address in the 'add friends' area and selecting the MSN network option.

MSN messanger, similar to ICQ or Yahoo messanger service.

And yes junk mail appears all the time, usually trying to scam or offer some service u don't need (porn sites usually).

If you've got a free email provider, then set up 2-3 email addresses - one for any site asking for email (most junk mail starts, with sites like that), and other ones for imporant emails like friends or secured sites.

Yes I get those in my email occasionally, they are spam, usually advertisements for porn sites. Msn messenger is a program that allows you to chat with other people in real time not like email. you can send a messeg and they can write back immediately in the same window. I would suggest yahoo messenger it allows you to chat with people using msn and yahoo and has fewer problems.

MSN messenger is Microsofts version of instant messaging--similar to AIM and yahoo messenger

junk mail is just that--junk. it's probably either ads or viruses.
