It's easy if you have a Hotmail account allowing the use of the Outlook
Connector. It's impossible otherwise, as far as I can tell. However, how
is your post a suggestion?

Default How do I import a hotmail address book into Outlook?

It is not your imagination. I used to enjoy sending web pages or links and
having my Hotmail account and address book pop up and allow me to use my
existing address book. Now, Office seems to have hijacked this function and
it seems I have to buy a Premium Service (in addition to paying for my
Hotmail account with extra storage) to email a link or page. Does anyone
know of a way to "deselect" Office so that I can use my Hotmail rather than
being forced into an option I never asked for and don't want? Any help
appreciated.

Thanks,

As far as I know, Outlook has never "hijacked" Hotmail. You are free to use
the Hotmail web interface complely independently of Outlook.
