This is how to create a Windows Live ID using an email address outside the Windows Live email system. Say that you love GMail and the rest of Google Services or have a MobileMe account but want some action when it comes to the Windows Live Services but dont want another email address to look after.
If you go to http://login.live.com then click "Sign up for an account" then when it asks you "Do you have an email address" select the option "Yes, use my e-mail address" you fill in all your details then you have to go to your inbox of the Email service and confirm that your own the email address. Once you confirm this you can sign into any Windows Live service (except Hotmail) using your current email address.
