I have no trouble with Hotmail. I always get into it with a bookmark.

Try deleting your hotmail.com and livemail.com cookies.

If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extension) like Adblock Plus or NoScript or Flash Block that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.


Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Oh dear. None of this works. Strange thing is I just made a new @hotmail.co.uk account, and it workswith Firefox 5. So why has my old account given up????
