XP & accessing Hotmail/Yahoo mail

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.messenger (More info?)

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

But hotmail - no result

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.
