Everytime I go to hotmail.com to check my email I keep getting this error message. This didn't happen till I got my cable internet working. How do I correct this.

And can somebody please tell me how to check my msn.com email via outlook?

Maybe your ISP doesnt allow you to view the MSN site. :D

Looks like a problem with the MSN servers, since you're accessing EoFF ok.

This shows you how to set up your Hotmail account in Outlook, it's pretty simple I just tried it out myself. :)

I think you need to download a patch, try this page:

Check your c:\%windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file to see whether the hotmail site itself is blocked for some queer reason. (open it in notepad)

%windir% normally includes the C:\ bit, since you might not install Windows to C: :p
