hotmail problem with Outlook Express and Java probs

[Hugh Janus]

My hotmail has stopped working in Outlook Express with the following error:

Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account: 'Steve',
Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol:
HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Forbidden', Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Error
Number: 0x800CCC33

Also when opening link from email I'm getting the following error:

Error with processing of xml: java.lang.Exception: Failed to process
[/ElectronicTelegraph/ETJhtml/ETXml/content/news/2004/11/08/nspace08.xml]
with [/ElectronicTelegraph/ETJhtml/ETXsl/news/newsdefault.xsl] - The element
type "p" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</p>".

Tried updating Java but has error on installation saying: "Unable to launch
the Java(TM) Update installer: %1 is not a valid Win32 application."

MSN Hotmail no longer supports Distributed Authoring and Versioning (DAV)
for free user accounts. Outlook Express uses the DAV interface to connect to Hotmail.
Only "paid Hotmail accounts" will work correctly with Outlook Express. If you configured
Outlook Express or Outlook to access your Hotmail account before DAV support was ended,
you may still be able to use Outlook Express to open a free Hotmail account. However,
eventually Hotmail will no longer support DAV for all free Hotmail accounts.

You receive an error message when you use Outlook Express to access your Hotmail account

The OE/Hotmail error is very infrequent. Is this at home or at work,
please?

Have you tried disabling any security suites you may have installed (e.g.,
NIS)?
