I am still getting queries on Hotmail accounts that have been accessed and hacked.
In some cases their Facebook account has also been compromised as their sign in email address and password were the same as their Hotmail account.
So what to do?
Log in to your account , if you can , and change your password
Make sure your password is different by having a combination of letters and numbers and have an upper case letter in there. Do not use a word that is in the dictionary.Do not use your business name.
Next log in to Facebook and change that password to another different one from your Hotmail account.
While you are in Hotmail you should change to Outlook.com and grab an alternative email address.
Next on your Microsoft Account add in:

Microsoft are phasing out Hotmail there web based email and and replacing it with Outlook.com
This is all part of redoing their web based services and the impending end of the " live " brand.
There is also now the tile interface as per the direction Microsoft is taking with Windows 8
Live contacts is now called " People " and Windows Live Calendar is now called Calendar
The new email interface is a vast improvement on the old hotmail and remember you can always sign up for a new @outlook email name.
Get used to the tiles as Windows with tiles will soon be everywhere , on their phones , operating system and online.
