1. As a rule of thumb, always check the website address before key-in your username and password.
For example, to login hotmail, the website must start as "http://login.live.com/..."
Other than that, such as,
"http://login.live.com.live.com/..." or
"http://login.live.live.com/..."
is considered as dangerous website and must leave it immediately.
2. Using a private browsing service in public computer.
3. Change your password in a free-virus computer immediately if the computer you used to login was/is infected.
To sum up, put a little bit efforts everyday, you can have a peace of mind everyday.
