I changed my browser to Firefox and added ZoneAlarm 4 Pro firewall and now I get this message when I go to the Hotmail.com web site.

I have allowed cookies in both (Firefox and ZoneAlarm). Am I forgetting something?
 
there are a few sites that still are not fully compatible with firefox. I had the same probem but with some drop-down menu's not appearing properly when i was searching for a job, lol. When this happens I just run my Internet Explorer.
 
you need to enable cookies in FF. go tools>options click on privacy now click cookies and cheek alow sites to set cookies
 
Try re-installing your version of Firefox and if that doesn't work, it may be time to update it. I had a similar problem and re-installing FF fixed it.
Good Luck!
 
Thanks for the tips folks. I will try them now and get back to you.

Rip_UK: That's exactly what I'm doing now....looking for a job. Not fun. Especially with all these problems I've been having lately with getting my computer to run right.

Thanks again and I will report back.

Ok, On ZoneAlarm Pro 4 you have to allow 3rd party cookies in order for Hotmail to work.

.....This will show how much I know.....What are 3rd party cookies? And should I be allowing them?
