Every time I've tried to open my hotmail today, an H&R Block site pops up trying to get me to buy their tax prep software and I can't find a way around it. This is driving me crazy. Please help.

Every time I've tried to open my hot mail today the page is usurped by H&R Block, trying to get me to buy their tax prep software and I don't see a way to close it out.

Are you having this issue in another browser too? Also possibly please give us a screen shot? Thanks!

No, it doesn't come up in any other browser. The interesting thing this morning was I had inadvertently doubleclicked my hotmail icon and two windows came up, one over the other. The first one had the H&R Block site that is driving me crazy, which I closed, but the second one had my dear old emails without the dreaded H&R Block takeover. I haven't been able to send a picture of the page, but it looks like an H&R Block web site and lists the various tax prep software and prices. You can navigate all around the site, too.

A screen shot would be helpful please.
