While using Hotmail in Aurora ver.28.0a2, and trying to attach a photo to an email, as an attachment, it will often freeze up Hotmail which subsequently crashes. It does not occur all the time and if I reopen the browser and Hotmail, it usually will send the e-mail with the attachments.

It is possible that anti-virus software is interfering by scanning the files that are uploaded.

Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that helps.
