IE7 and Hotmail

Bures

ULTIMATE Member
Anyone who has upgraded to Internet Explorer 7 and also has a Hotmail account using Outlook Express will now find the email no longer works.
Upgrading to IE7 has scuppered the integration and you will be in an endless loop requesting your Hotmail user name and password.
MS are aware of this and have released a patch.
Unfortunately it doesn`t work for all. including me
Another fine mess from Bill G.
 
It only happens with some people.

And if you get the chance, switch back to the old hotmail interface. I think its a problem with the new fancy stuff they have done.

I had to do this for a friend, so its worth trying.

HI
I had exactly the same problem about a 2 months ago the only way I could fix it was to reinstall windows could not removed ie7 won't touch ie7 with a barge pole :mad:
 
I have IE7 and I have Outlook Express I am not experiencing any problems.
(according to Sods Law I probably will now) .My hotmail account has worked all the time.
 
Incidently I did upgrade my Hotmail to the new interface the next time I used it after installing IE7.
 
Miffe,

What did you mean by "I did upgrade my hotmail........"
Are you saying you deleted the account in OE then added it again ?
