Hi

I bought a new DELL INspiron 8600 laptop and I have a problem with
accessing my emails particularly Hotmail and Yahoo. Once I try to
signon to hotmail, it hangs on for a whle and displays "Page not
found" Whereas in Yahoo it takes me till the page which shows the No.
of mails in Inbox. But however if I click on the INBOX, the end result
is same

I have deleted all files (temp internet), deleted cookies and tried
everything but of no avail?

Could somebody enlighten me what else needs to be done?

Anybody else facing a similiar situation?


Thx in advance

mani
 
Greetings Mani,

Try the following link:
https://www.amazon.com

If Amazon doesn't come up, then click Start, then Run, and type the following command:
regsvr32 softpub.dll
then click OK

After you see the confirmation message, try again.

Jonathan?

Hi Mani,

Well the other thing to check if it's the browser itself or the connection. You can do so
rather quickly by downloading a third-party browser like FireFox
(http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/) and trying Hotmail et al there.
