Hacking hotmail is done through social engineering usually and involves no actual hacking skills as any exploits have bben fixed.

There was ways but they are no more.

Anyone who hacks hotmail is not a hacker in any way. Think of taking 500 hotmail accounts and how many peoples passwords are :

password
their name
and other assorted guessable passwords.

Brute forcing is no non-existant as measures have been taken against multiple password attempts.

Just something Id thought Id add.
