Default Live vs. Hotmail

I think that I already have a Live account (for MS Money and/or My Phone). In fact, I was just able to log in at live.com, so I must have one.

Under the Hotmail tab, though, it showed an Inbox with one message (a welcome message), so I may have a Hotmail account, too. I tried to find out what the address was, but there's nothing listed. I tried sending an E-mail and it looked like it was using my Live login E-mail address, but when I got the anti-spam CAPTCHA, Firefox locked up completely.
