2nd time, since no reply from the first, I have had my hotmail account hacked/phished, etc, and cannot get in, persons have changed all the information as to make it so I cannot recover it through the support survey. I NEED help asap and I cannot understate the extreme importance of getting help. Email is *** Email address is removed for privacy ***, and I cannot get any help from any site whatsoever- in fact, the lack of support has given birth to a new type of scammer, the "hotmail recovery pc" websites, the 888 or 800 numbers that prey on desperate people trying to get their lives back. Look, I have windows 8, and have been faithful to the microsoft brand (htc windows phone 8x, xbox over ps2,3, etc) but I really need you to pull together and help me on this- my life is at stake here- all my business contacts and important documentation are stored on hotmail. HELP PLEASE. 
I used to be able to view my hotmail simply by hitting my hotmail icon and it would bring in the recent emails.Now i have to sign in every time before I can view .I have check'd off the stay on line box but still no result.Also i was able to move emails to the read option but no longer can.
In hotmail/outook when I view settings for "content from 3rd party networks" there is a photo of someone named Jordan Lane and hotmail/outlook thinks his facebook account is mine!  His image is being sent with ALL of my outgoing email.  I verified with one of my email recipients that this guy's image is being seen on the receiving side.  I need it off of MY account NOW.  I don't know him, I don't know how it got there and I'm angry that hotmail/outlook would take the liberty of trying to link my email account to ANYTHING or ANYWHERE without my permission.  I have clicked the button to not show public content from 3rd party networks and it does NOTHING.  I cannot control this other person's facebook account and yet hotmail/outlook is ALLOWING his image to be on MY email account - the GALL!  GET THE PHOTO OFF OF MY EMAIL ACCOUNT NOW!
