are you sure it is coming from hotmail and not because you're email address
is being picked up by bots via newsgroups and other such places?

there is probably a place in hotmail options where you can enable/disable
adds which you might of inadvertadly accepted
I also recall seeing a section called free subscriptions which you could
check

at worse email them and ask how to get it stopped
