I'm unable to open attachments sent to my Hotmail account, using internet
explorer.
Whenever I try to

open or save an attachment I encounter the following error:

"Internet Explorer cannot download from 64.4.56.250.

Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The site is

either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later".

I can download it using "firefox web browser"

Try the following and see if it helps:

Try clearing the IE cache. I.E./Tools/Options/General/Delete files (and
delete offline content.)

Zone Alarm Pro can block Images in IE

1. Go into IE>Tools>Internet Options>Security>Custom level>reset custom
level to Medium or Low
2. Go into IE>Tools>Internet Options>Privacy>set the slider to Medium or Low
3. Go to this site and read on adjusting the Privacy settings in ZA. It will
explain how to customize on a per site basis.
