Thanx advance for your help and I notice that a lot of other people currently have the SAME problem.

Can’t you email them for support from a different email addy? I wouldn’t panic. Could just be a glitch.

...it asked from my mobile phone number to send me a code. I did that but no code sent. That doesn't sound good. I'm no techie, but I would be very suspicious about giving my cell number to a message that promised to unblock access to a free email account.
Hope it's just a system glitch, and that you haven't inadvertently compromised your phone security.

You need to donate to the DNC and then Howard Dean will unlock your account. Upon re-logging in, turn up your speakers to hear the “Yeeaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!.”

Avoid hotmail entirely.
Use fastmail.fm - They’re safe, secure, and do not disclose your IP address.

Dont give anyone any more personal info. Run virus scan and ad/malware detectors.

It sounds like a revenge of the stores you’ve been couponing into bankrupcy.

Have you tried Windows Live ID Forums? I think that may be a path to the Microsoft support communists.

I’m no help on this issue. But I did want to say, if you click on certain ads or spam posts on facebook, hackers can now get into your facebook and/or email account and use it to generate more spam. Hackers are also able to harvest any personal information you may have stored and can use it for identity theft. So be careful. Don’t click on anything from anyone you don’t know.

You probably will not get the account reactivate. This happen to my old Aunt recently ... had to give up and get her a new on line account somewhere else. Also - the spam is generated by a web bot that invades your computer and steals your address lists. It then could be operating as a SMTP mail program on your computer or on another computer practically anywhere. I tried five malicious agent removers and could not find it on her computer. So it must have been operating somewhere else - using her email address. Thus the reason for the block. Not fair - but they don’t care...

I would go to another computer, get MalwareBytes from Malwarebytes.org, copy it over, install, and run it. That might get you started.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but kiss that account goodbye. When you lose the password to a conventional e-mail account such as you get from your Internet provider (or have the password changed on you by a hacker, in your case), recovery is a simple matter because your provider knows who you are. Your Internet service is set up with them at a specified street address, with the e-mail account as a feature of that service. You just have them reset the password and send you an auto-generated replacement. But when you open an account with Gmail, Hotmail or other free public e-mail-only service operating "in the cloud", the service doesn't know who you are. When you contact them claiming that you have lost your password, they ask for some personal information related to the account. After a couple of days you get a form response saying they could not verify that this is your account, and you're screwed. Just walk away, sign up for another free public account, and use it to tell all your friends that your old address is now lost to a Russian spammer.
