I have a project, but I don’t know which library that I could use for this project:
Project requirement
I’ve used to try Watir with Ruby, however I would like to try C++ and C# libraries this time. Plus, non-commercial please since I’m still a student. Any idea?
Thank you,
Don’t think of this in terms of logging into hotmail.com and clicking. Instead, think of it as retrieving email programmatically. Hotmail supports two standard protocols for this: POP3 and Exchange. If you’re programming this on Windows, and since you tagged the question C#, I suggest using C# to access the Exchange API, which is introduced here:

You should be able with fairly little effort to open the emails and extract the links you want. If the Exchange API doesn’t work out, just use POP3, which will be programmable from any platform.
