Microsoft Outlook is very strict in keeping its products and services up to its policies. If Microsoft finds any suspicious and unusual activity on Windows Live! the account then it will strike out the access to the service. To help protect your account from fraud or abuse, Microsoft Hotmail might temporarily suspend your account.

Actually, every time you sign in to your account, cookie data is taken up by the MSN Hotmail and is stored on its servers. These cookies and cache data help for further references for log-in. But when you enter incorrect password cookies undergo deletion and when the limit number of attempts are crossed the cookies expire. Thus locking your account.
