It has something to do with Java I believe When logging into Hotmail "Windows Live". -- Upgrade your web browser We recommend that you upgrade your web browser so you can get the most out of Windows Live Hotmail. Upgrading should only take a few minutes. To get started, choose one of the browsers below: * Microsoft Internet Explorer * Mozilla Firefox * Apple Safari If you don't want to upgrade right now you can still continue to Windows Live Hotmail, but some parts of it may not work and it may not be displayed properly. Got a mobile device? Check your e-mail by going to http://mobile.live.com/hm. -- On Firefox 3.03 and Ubuntu 8.04. WISH THERE WAS A WAY TO GET BACK TO CLASSIC HOTMAIL. There is no way after you accept the new Live version. Hope this gets fixed soon... I'm not able to send out mail at all.

this is because hotmail is blocking linux (for what i heard). the solution is install the user agent switcher addon, and switch the identity to IE. -- Full Hotmail version can't start in Ubuntu Firefox, but works on Windows Firefox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219166 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
