jimbeam1 Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Hi, I have had problems logging on to msn/hotmail, for a couple of days now. Today can not log on at all. I have tried clearing cookies as this has helped. But today nothing. Anyone else having problems? jb1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavyDrinker Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 No. Mine's fine in Bangkok. Where are you? Have you tried an alternative method of accessing your Hotmail such as via a mobile phone so you can discount possible ISP issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fookhaht Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 (edited) Hotmail is rife with problems like this, including a seriously weak security structure which allows spam and viruses to run rampant, often hijacking your email contacts for spam purposes. Instead of trying to fix this mess, suggest you dump the Hotmail, and consider the vastly more secure and reliable Gmail service. There's a reason why Gmail is experiencing market-share jumps in figures above 40%! http://www.webanalyt...yahoo-mail.html Edited February 18, 2012 by Fookhaht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it might be time to dump hotmail. The Internet still confuses my little mind. I do like to go on MSN for a general look at the UK news stories + sport For some reason the problem appears to be with Internet Explorer & Firefox, as I am still experiencing problems with both. Google Chrome, no problem. I have even done a system restore back 5 days, to no avail. Such are the joys. Cheers all. jb1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Like posters above have already concluded: Gmail for speed, Yahoo for security and Hotmail for taking a dump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaiyenyen Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hotmail locked me out of my account around six months ago. I followed all the steps to get back in, answered all the security questions, but no joy. I gave up, and opened a gmail account. Never had a problem with gmail..............so far.
