411879 2005-12-11 07:18:00 Has anyone had an issue logging onto Hotmail using Firefox recently? Has something changed since I notice that all I end up with is a whole string of html code?

The only way i can currently get into Hotmail is by using IE.

411880 2005-12-11 07:26:00 I just tried logging onto Hotmail, and could without any problems.

You are not blocking cookies or have an extension installed which is interferring with the login process?

411881 2005-12-11 07:44:00 Cookies are enabled. The only extension I have which could possibly do anything is Adblock ... but dont believe that is it.

I dont believe I have changed anything recently to cause this change.

One thing that came to mind is Javascript ... am currently running Version 1.5.0 (build 1.5.0_01-b08) but I notice there is a newer version ... would this have anything to do with it?

411883 2005-12-11 07:54:00 Javascript should of affected IE as well as Firefox. Try clearing out Firefox's cache and cookies and see if this makes a difference. Jen (38)
411884 2005-12-11 08:27:00 I cleared the cache and cookies and then shut down Firefox. Restarted Firefox and went to the Hotmail logon page, entered e-mail anddress and password, hit 'sign in' and I ended up with a page of HTML code.

Went through the process again, logged in under another account and it worked fine. Logged out and relogged in under the account which was causing me problems ... and it damn well worked.

Blowed if I know what was going on .... but am now a happy chappie :thumbs:
