Public bug reported:
The new Hotmail is not working.
I am using Hardy 8.04 (?)
After reading the support forums the problem has been located.
It's commonly a useragent issue.
When the useragent information is modified Hotmail works again.
However for me when I modify the information the new information only
remains for the current session. When I log off or close the Hotmail window
the new useragent information reverts to the original value.
How can this change be made permenant and better yet why isn't it offered as an
automatic
update for installation?
general.useragent.vendor;Ubuntu------ Original value
general.useragent.vendor;Firefox-------This makes Hotmail work again !
What can you do to make this change permanent and offered as an update for
users?
Like I said when I close the session the original value returns and Hotmail
does not properly function.
