Here is a link to an article that explains step by step how to configure
Outlook to check your Hotmail account,
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;287424. I hope this
helps resolve your issue.

I went to the set up webpage to find instructions how to set up Hotmail account in Outlook, but I went to set it up I was NOT able to choose the HTTP server. Only the POP3 and IMAP server are available from the drop down box! How can you set up an Hotmail account without this option

Can anyone help please

Only Outlook 2002 and 2003 support Hotmail. What version do you have for
Outlook?

I also have Outlook 2002 and tried to set Hotmail up with it. The HTTP option is greyed out. (Step #3 on the link below).
