Are you getting any error message?

Hotmail and IE6/OE6 - some things to check
 - Go to IE6 Tools/Internet Options/Privacy tab, then click Edit. enter "hotmail.com" and
click "allow all cookies".
 - Check in Internet Explorer under Tools/Internet Options/Security that the user has not
changed the password setting from 'prompt for username and password' to 'anonymous logon'
in internet zone. The option setting for anonymous logon may cause the error.
