Yeah I find they do that a lot, that's why I no longer do the MSDN circle jerk thing you can go round and round for hours and not see anything important.

So they've made it work exactly the same as their help system?
Look, one of the main things a company should present to its customers is consistency, so stop complaining.

I've read in another post that you've got into an infinite loop trying to get it done so, you are not agree with the terms of use... Don't use that anymore and forget about it.

I got about 4 of these emails today about new terms and conditions of use with MS.
They were spam and I deleted them....
Hope you haven't been sucked in...

Just violate their terms of use. That'll cancel your account.

Most accounts, you can't cancel. Some accounts, go inactive, if you haven't used them in 60 days, Hotmail for example.
Microsoft sucks, and they get worse every day. I'm not just saying that because everyone else says it...they really do.

Get an XBox 360 (or borrow one), log on to your account, go into an online game that supports the microphone, and just scream obscenities until your account is banned...wait never mind, if they did that there wouldn't be any gamers left on Xbox live...

It's entirely possible they can't remove you. Or, more accurately, don't know how.
I was told this first-hand by someone with direct access to the database used by one team back in the aughts. They had not built an account management feature into their web app. If a member record needed to be edited or removed, someone had to do it by hand in the back-end database. So, I guess they knew how, but it was made clear that nobody intended to actually mess with the database.
If someone made a mistake or wanted to change contact info? Create a new account.
As far as I know they still have the same database backing the same program. Whether they ever updated the front-end tools... well, clearly not effectively.

Why is it so important that you cancel it? Storing child porn on SkyDrive or something? :P Just let it lapse and forget about it - best case, they push out a ToS change and since you never agreed to it, it's inactivated, worse case, Microsoft gets bought out by NigeriSpamCo when the value of the dollar collapses! :P
