The problem is with a corrupted contact list. To fix it is simple:
1) Open Windows Explorer
2) Open the "Tools" Menu and select "Folder Options"
3) Navigate to the "View" Tab and select to show hidden objects
4) Navigate to the Documents and Settings folder
5) Open the "Local Settings" folder and find the "Microsoft" subfolder
6) find the "Windows Live Contacts" folder and delete the files from inside this folder.
7) Try signing in again, it should work.

Windows, not Internet, Explorer. aka "My Computer" or "My Documents".
