My email was hacked and the person changed my alternate email and my secret question/answer.<p>I cant find any way to contact a Hotmail employee. Anyone here knows how I can get back my account.

A number of customers have been able to get help from MSN's support line:<p>1-866-672-4551<p>May require having (or purchasing) a Windows Live Hotmail Plus account or other paid MSN account. You may also need to call back several times until reaching someone willing/able to help.

I google "hijacked hotmail" and all I found was a lot of other people in the same situation. maybe some deep digging on that search might yield some solution.
