How do I verify my Windows Live email address?

When you log in to the Microsoft Windows Live network using http://account.live.com/ (I have deliberately not made that a clickable URL, btw. Copy and paste or type it in for yourself to ensure you aren't getting tricked!) the first thing you should see is:

windows live verify email address 1

Click on "Verify your e-mail address" and...

windows live verify email address 2

Make sure that's the address you desire to verify (if not, you'll need to tweak some settings to update it) then click on "Send e-mail".
Message sent!

windows live verify email address 3

Within a few minutes in the mailbox, you'll see a message similar to this:

windows live verify email address 4

Again, don't click on the link, copy and paste it into your Web browser (darn those hackers and their phishing attempts anyway!). Assuming everything works properly, here's what you'll see:

windows live verify email address 5

Done! Now you should never see the "unverified" error again.
