Hi,
Try these steps:
1. Clear the IE cache. IE> Tools> Internet Options> General> Delete files
(and delete offline content when that dialog pops up) It's often recommended
that the TIF folder be kept at about 50 MB (Settings.)
2. Browse to your Cookies folder and delete any cookies from hotmail, msn or
passport. (Or delete all cookies.)
3. Cookie options are at Internet Options> Privacy. A setting of Low or
Medium should allow these cookies. If you select a Privacy setting other
than "accept all" or "block all" you can use the Edit button to accept or
block cookies from selected sites.
4. Check any third-party security programs to see if one of them is blocking
cookies.
5. Verify that the computer's clock is correct- including the Time Zone.

I just got this new PC 6 months ago and I've installed all the Windows
updates. I can't open hotmail with Internet Explorer. I get all the way to
the sign in page and i put my user name and password and click sign in and it
seems it's directing me but never gets to it. I can open my hotmail from AOL
or Firefox in the same computer without a problem. It's just with Explorer
that doesn't work.
Anybody knows why? I can't figure it out.
Thanks!
