Re: Working on your request... Hotmail Live unuseable lately...

I also have had the problem for several weeks and have been in communication
with Hotmail support. They've had me do several things that has not
resolved the issue and I think they have given up. Its a REAL pain to open
a folder then try to open another folder and nothing happens but that
STUPID message on the bottom left hand corner of the window that reads
"Working on your request". All other email services work just fine. I did
discover if I select "Try the full version" on the bottom of the Classic
Hotmail window that my problem goes away. This tells me that it is a
unique problem with the Classic Hotmail. It is annoying in that Microsoft
doesn't seem to care.

Recently (since last week, end of June 2008), I get the yellow box on lower
left side of browser saying "Working on your request...."
It actually stays on too long and Hotmail Live freeezes, stops working or
if I am very unlucky it will crash after writting an email for 30 minutes.
I pay for the full account and the Outlook connector so there is no reason
for my Live account to work on any request.
I am currently working in another country (but problem not there before so
I don't think is country related).
I suspect that it may be related to waiting to download and dysplay ads or
unwanted info from home country. Another nono if I pay for full services.
This last part is especulative but msn ads services seems to be having that
effect around the net lately (so I am not alone in this idea).
----->questions:
1-is the message "working on your request" a temporary problem due to some
upgrading somewhere, or is it a thing to stay?
2-If so, will paying accounts also suffer from this?
3-If so, can someone suggest another webbased email service that will be
adbot-tracking free (so no gmail) even if paying more than $50 a year? (I
already use Yahoo premium for anotyher account, so no Yahoo either).
Thanks.
