Jonathan, similar thing is happening to us. Cannot access hotmail or
messenger. Had this happen a few weeks back. Thought it was the firewall
and got some great info in here. Fixed if for while but now we have not
access to any emails. When in messenger it allows us to log in and tell us
we have xxx amount of emails with the popup in the tool bar and once you
click on that to go to the inbox it says opening page and then it times out
to page cannot be displayed. With hotmail it just gets to log in and then
times out saying page cannot be displayed. We are using messenger 6.2 and
have had lots of problems with it. Are using the windows security center and
have XP. Can you help. Also friends can access our mail from their computer
no problems. samething happen to me need help?????
