Hotmail Problem

I don't know why but when I choose Hotmail from the MSN homepage the mail opens but I can't read any mail. Then I keep getting a script error.

I tried a restore but that didn't work.

Any ideas appreciated

Thanks

Have you installed Java or using 'Noscript' addon in Firefox.

No none of that

Have you considered using Windows Live Mail? Download Windows Live Mail 2011 (15.4.3555) - FileHippo.com

I just used live mail prior to receiving your response and it worked

On the hotmail it still won't work and on the bottom of the folders at messenger it is loading !!!!!!! why

I can't find how to disable messenger---how do you do it

I use Win7 and don't install messenger. Can you post an image?

I don't think you can disable it; but you can "sign-in to Messenger" and "Sign-out of Messenger" from the Hotmail website by hovering over the black triangle under your name in the upper right corner, revealing a pop up menu showing the Messenger sign-in choice you are not currently using. The script problem you mentioned may have more to do with your browser. If you're using IE, you can try a reset: Tools/Internet Options/Advanced/Reset.

I did that reset and in addition ran the sfc /scannow

Nothing changed in the system

I went to the microsoft hotmail forum and discovered that from 20-26 Mar there were/are problems with the exact same symtoms in the states of Pa. and NJ. I live in Pa.

The solution provided is to

1 Go to hotmail account

2. Go to the bottom of the page and select " activate HTTPS "

3 Select activate

I did this and now I can access hotmail.

I hope it is a permanent solution !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
