Major Nelson has given us an update as to what really happened. It seems that someone coaxed some information out of Microsoft's support personnel. The terms for it used by Major Nelson are, Social Engineering, and pre-texting. Its a form of having some information on a given account, and then convincing the support staff member, of their legitimacy. So live wasn't hacked, just a few support staff members not doing their job's right.
