Why doesn't Firefox recognize the Windows Live Mail login page as such and offer to remember the password?
For most other sites' login pages, Firefox recognizes that they are login pages and offers to remember my password. For the Windows Live Mail login page it does not.

Microsoft tells the browser not to allow the user to save their username/password. If you look around (or someone may post after me) their is a bookmarklet and greasemonkey script floating around that bypasses that, IIRC.
Remember Password bookmarklet:

Just drag that Bookmarklet in to your bookmarks, toolbar or drop-down list, and click that Bookmarklet like you would click on a bookmark before you you submit your login to the website.
That log in page is created via JavaScript and the Password Manager doesn't work in that case.
You can see that if you inspect the page source.
- Firefox > Web Developer > Page Source
- Tools > Web Developer > Page Source (Ctrl+U)
- Right-click on a web page to open the right-click context menu and select Page Source
