Security Flaw?

Hello

Today I noticed one of my "Friends" was online--I started a chat an
automatically got an automated script chatting with me about thei
webcam. I then realized that this wasn't my friend, but they did hav
the same name as one of my real friends on IM, and it is a name tha
isn't that common

I was never prompted to add this contact--I would have seen the wron
email and rejected it is I was. This is troubling--how were they able t
figure out who my contact names were and insert themselves into m
contact list without approval

I am on the latest Windows Live 2009-- 14.0.8089.72

Is this a known issue
