If for some reason your program failed to sign-in, your contacts that were added when signed in would not be in the "not-signed-in" contact list so it would display the "add contact" link. (Same thing if you were signed-in and your contact was added when not signed it, it would not be in the "signed-in" list.)
I wonder if you used the so-called "updated version" of WLE:
Update: Windows Live Mail Essential to version 15.4.3555.0308

I got the update from Download Windows Live Mail 2011 (15.4.3555) - FileHippo.com before the latest released version.

But he also quoted from a Microsoft statement that indicates it will be come mandatory some day:
"In the coming weeks, customers on Windows Vista SP2 and Windows 7 will receive a notification prompting them to upgrade to the new version," Abrahams notes. "Since this release contains critical fixes for the Essentials package, in a few months, the update will become required for all eligible customers."
