Vista - Windows Live Mail (hotmail) send/recieve other accounts

Windows Live Mail (Web based hotmail) will not let me connect to the section (options) that would allow me to send/receive other accounts (add an email account) (pop). I keep getting the same error message whether using Firefox or IE:

The connection was reset

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.


* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

This option used to work, but now I can't access the option at all. Any ideas?
