Anyone else been getting locked out of Hotmail lately?

I can’t tell if Hotmail is freaking out or if someone is trying to hack my account. Every time I try to log in I get the message:

> You’ve tried to sign in too many times with an incorrect e-mail address or password.

even though it may have only been the first time that day.
