For the last four days, I can't login into Hotmail even though I am logged
into MSN. It does not make a difference whether I just click on the Inbox in
the MSN Passport pop-up or whether I go to hotmail.com and try to login from
there. The result is the same: The Page Cannot Be Displayed.
If it helps, here is the URL that brings up the error page:

There was a previous post with a similar problem and a suggested solution (I
pasted the suggested solution at the bottom of this post, so you know what I
am talking about). But it didn't work.
I have run AdAware, SpyBot and HijackThis and can't find anything
suspicious. I connect to the internet via a ISP/Cable Modem and a Linksys
Wi-Fi router. I have had the setup for months now and it's always worked fine.
ANY IDEA???? Could it be SP2?
Thanks
