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

First, this is quite disturbing. I had a post and was erased or deleted. I
was quite proud of it.

Changing to Full version does not fix, I still had it happpening in the Full
version. I now use the Classic and it is not happening so often now. It may
have been a server upgrade thing.

Unless.... it was purposfully done by Microsoft to "Force" people into going
to the Full version. I doubt it but it sure looks like it.

The erasing of my last post and this repeated message by Mr. "working on
your request" seems to be a forceful push to use the Full version (because
they are killing the Classic).

"Working on your request" is probably an ad-server thing. This means they
will be able to serve you more ads more effectively when it is fine tuned.

You will see the "working..." on your Full version too. Specially when you
travel and the adserver is considering what kind of ad to serve you rather
than serve emails as Hotmail Plus should.

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.
