I can open my hotmail inbox, but I can't open any of the e-mail in it and the content is not visible in the preview pane.

My problem is hotmail only - all other internet functions are OK. I had done nothing that I was aware of and went to read my hotmail to find I could see the usual web view, but could not open any mail message and the message content is not visible. Also, I cannot create a new email or navigate to other pages in the inbox. The junkmail count is escalating dramatically.

OK - I fixed this myself. On a hunch I used Firefox to check my plug-ins. I deleted all the old java plug-ins and installed the latest update and hotmail now works. How people with no computer knowledge at all solve their problems I'm blowed if I know. It shouldn't be this hard...
