Considering that MSFT usually tweaks their sites to favor the MSFT browser,
I find it odd that you would think the problem is with Hotmail when MSFT's
arch enemy's browser is working on the broken site. Odds are, the problem is
with MSIE, not MSN Hotmail.

Clear cache, history, and cookies. Check your time. Round up the usual MSIE
suspects.
