Hotmail Password Help!
Hi...I've been locked out since May 17th---after waiting forever, I've finally received a help email to reset the password, it went to my sister's account and when I went to do it, "the link has expired". They were sending this link every so often, but they've stopped coming---ALL I want to do and all I need is the link one more time! I am so mad about this!! Does anyone know WHO I email to ask about this? It's no good emailing the Postmaster who's listed on the bottom of the email, it's a "no-reply" address......can anyone help? Thank you very much!! Dana

After several unsuccessful sign in attempts, Windows Live ID automatically sets a "locked out" period. This prevents access to your account, even when the correct password is supplied for security reasons.
In order to regain access to your account, please validate your account ownership by visiting the link below:
