Yes, because we ALL know Microsoft's Hotmail team is going to spend the time and energy hand-entering the information provided from hundreds of thousands of users from 5 continents as opposed to just sending you a log-in link. I've seen more than a couple of these myself and they -always- make me roll my eyes.
