Windows Live mail

Hi:

 

I can't sign out of Windows Live mail. I can sign out of Hot Mail no problem, but click on Live Mail and it opens everything without signing in. Have tried "stop signing in" to no avail.

Do I need Windows Live Mail for Hotmail, Skydrive etc to work?

If not how do I get rid of it? It's not listed in Control Panel program list.

Any and all feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks:

BPS
