Is this a genuine email?

I received the text below, personalised to my hotmail account and with a Windows Live logo that I thought looked very badly reproduced. It doesn't seem genuine to me but I want to be sure:

I received an email saying Windows Live were 'unable to verify your account details. Due to this, to ensure that your email service is not interrupted, we request you to confirm and update your information today by following the link below' I stupidly clicked on the link before verifying the email was actually from them.

Why am I being forced to change my password?

20. June 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail · Tags: information, Live, login, page, Windows

When I try to login, I come to a page that says "Before you can sign in to Windows Live, you need to create a new password. We recommend creating a strong password to help protect your information." WHy is this happening? I don't want to change my pasword. How do I get around this?

How do I find which catagory a contact is listed within so I do not need to search for it?

20. June 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: cannot, Contact, Express, information, way

Outlook Express told me in which category or group each contact was listed so I could easily find and delete them when they asked to unsubscribe. I cannot find this information anywhere in my contact information. Is there anywhere or any way I can easily see in which category a contact is listed in Windows Live Mail?

I received an email saying my account will be permanently suspended if I do not click on the link. I think this is bogus, is it?
