    2 or 3, depending on if it's a night they're arguing about having a "split personality crisis" because I partitioned the drive.

Well, this is what I found when I did a search for the addy:

92.251.247.0 - 92.251.247.255 - Ip Address - Hutchison 3G Uk Ltd

194.126.180.181, Netgroup, LTD Ukraine - Whois

Just make sure you have a strong password. In light of the recent activity, you may want to change it. Make sure, if you do change it, that it's also a strong password.

I'm hoping it's just spam bots trying to guess my pw or something, not too worried about anyone guessing my password since its 16 letters with numbers and capital/lowercase letters and I also got 2 step verification enabled

Just use strong password.

If they know your email address they will try again. Only way to safe guard is to use strong password atleast 20 charater long.

20 is impossible, the limit is 16 characters

It might be a good idea to contact your ISP or Mail host & let them know what is going on. If you can't block the IP addys, then ask if they can.

LOL, sounds like they're having a go. As you can't see a 'This wasn't me' button, I guess Microsoft are only interested in people reporting successful sign-in's. Still, at least having two-factor authentication switched on it gives you a bit more piece of mind.

You don't you have a three letter name or another desirable name by any chance do you? Alternatively, it could be a sign of a website breach. Say for example you used your email address on another website and it was breached resulting in the usernames and passwords being leaked, it's possible people could be going through the usernames and passwords looking for people who used the same password for both the breached account and for their mail account.

Eh AT&T's customer service is very poor and no help 99% of the time and I doubt Microsoft would do much

I guess that could be possible, my email name is a long one though (made it when I was young), I don't use my email password on any other sites and it's 16 letters mixed with lower case, uppercase and other characters.
