After reading slashdot about Microsoft changing the personal profile on hotmail to be viewable to anyone, I decided to turn the thing off. When trying to change the Personal Profile option in hotmail you must use a IE or Netscape to access it. I think Ms is trying to be very anti-competitive as we already know. This is dirty!
Ryuhei ps: here is the article "East Side Journal reports that without telling anyone, Microsoft has suddenly changed the privacy preferences for all Hotmail users. They're now sharing your name and other personal information with third parties, even if you said you didn't want that when you signed up. (If you're a user, login, go to Options > Personal Profile, and un-check the boxes at the bottom of that page.)" The same reporter has written a follow-up article today.
