Some have reported this trick works:
Sign out of Hotmail, select save email address only and sign in. This bug
only happens when you sign in on save/remember my email *and* password.
Reasoning: If you log into Hotmail and check the box "Do not remember my
e-mail address
for future sign-in. (Select this when using a public computer.)" it
will not let you open attachments. Hotmail is actually protecting you
by not letting you download personal attachments onto a "public"
computer!
64.4.49.124 is one IP address for a Hotmail server, btw.

Try this: In IE go to Tools...Internet Options...Advanced tab, scroll down.
to the Security section, UNcheck "Do not save encrypted pages to disk",
click Apply, click Okay.
Work-around: Forward the email to another account, preferably a POP one
(where you would use Outlook or OE), then open the attachment there.

Running Windows XP Pro with Internet Exprorer 6.. Lately, I am unable (in
Hotmail Service) to Download / Open or Save any E-Mail Attachment of any
type
or extention, Renamed, Compressed or none Compressed files/photos/songs or
Documents, Not even a Text Document that Im 100% sure is Virus free.. even
if
I disable my Anti Virus and/or my Fire Wall programs.
I can send and I can receive and I can read E-Mails, but I cannot
Downlod/Open or Save Attachments..
In my E-Mail inbox,, When I click on a received Attachment then on
Download,, I can see some funny Downloading little window that start
showing
the proceess of some false downloading task that is taking place,, But
with
no destination, path or size.. or anything else in it exept for the name
of
the attachment/file.
10 seconds later that Dowloading process stops, and an error message comes
up:
Internet Explorer Cannot Download from 64.4.49.124. (which is not my IP
adrs. nor any one that I know) !! then it goes in that error message:
Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet Site.. The Requested
Site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later. (I
tried and restarted my system many times, But with same results) I didn't
have that Problem 4 or 5 days ago.. a freind told me that a freind of his
mention something about Adobe Reader, which I think it is not the Case
here....
Thanking You for your Help.
Remay
