Quick Get A @live Mail Account before MS Closes It Again

Update: Looks like MS closed this again. better luck next time.

People always seem to be finding loops on Microsoft’s site to get themselves @live email address. This is like the 3rd or 4th time Url hacks have been discovered. I managed to get clazh[@]live.com last year.

  1. Go to www.hotmail.com, click on Sign up, and choose a free account, as before.
  2. Now, you will be taken to a signup page that shows an @hotmail.com domain for your email address.
  3. Go to the address bar, make hmnewuser.aspx read newuser.aspx and look along until you see &hm=1, after removing that hit enter.
  4. Your @hotmail magically becomes @live.

Grow up man. Do you think Microsoft is just too idiot not to notice this. This was just a marketing trick.
