| | Hotmail error: "We can't connect to Windows Live Hotmail right now Please try again later." Im a nontechnical user and have been getting this error message since last week. Been using Hotmail for years and never had any problems. I'm able to see my list of emails (sender & titles), but when I click on them or try to look in any of my folders, I get this error message. Oddly, I'm able to send emails no problem. I have another PC at home where Hotmail works fine. Any help is greatly appreciated. |

| | RE: Hotmail error: "We can't connect to Windows Live Hotmail right now Forgot to mention that I'm using XP. Also, I emailed Microsoft and their reply had me delete my cookies, reset security levels, etc, which didn't solve the problem.

| | RE: Hotmail error: "We can't connect to Windows Live Hotmail right OK, so this is very weird. We have 4 users on this computer (XP SP3), all using the same profile. 3 can log into Hotmail, and check messages etc. 1 of the 4 has this issue. She can log in and see her list of e-mails, but cannot open any of them. We have several other computers in the house, all on the same private network. She can check her mail from any other computer, and everything works perfectly. So: - it is not a "profile" issue - we all use the same XP user profile - it is not a IE issue - everyone else can get into their accounts using IE - it is not a problem with the account - it works from every other machine - Hotmail is not undergoing maintenance - this has been consistent for weeks now - I have cleaned the cache , cookies etc with Cleanup! and CCleaner - no effect - I have turned off the Windows popup blocker - I don't use any other type of ad blocker - we have rebooted the computer numerous times - it is Windows :-) Thanks for your help JD "chaps" wrote: Quote: > I had AdSustract running, too.
