After a few months without a word on @live e-mail addresses, news have appeared a lot on the subject recently. At first, they were officially available without using any kind of trick, but it disappeared quickly. No more than a week after, however, a new unofficial way of getting the long-awaited addresses has just surfaced.

The trick is pretty simple this time, because it involves modifying the contents of the address bar to link to the @live.com address registration page:

1. Visit the hotmail subscription page

2. Choose the free account

3. In the address bar, find and change "hmnewuser.aspx" to "newuser.aspx"

4. Locate and delete "&hm=1" from the address bar

5. Hit enter, and enjoy your @live address!

What are you waiting for? Go get yours while they're hot and non taken!

Note: You have to do exactly as stated or it won't work!

That's not true, I've just registered another @live address for my wife.

Rick, you're probably doing something wrong.

EDIT: YAY! I finally got one thanks N1K

It does not work anymore N1K and they say it at JCXP too :icon_question:

Update: This method has now been disabled and no longer works. Hope those who were interested got one in time!

I wish I could get one but I didn't had time yesterday to busy @ work
