[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Hotmail HELP Needed.....

Posted: 9/19/2004 7:48:32 PM EDT

My girlfriend can't access her hotmail account. After she signs in, the page acts like its loading forever then goes to the "The page cannot be displayed" screen. It happens on her computer, mine, and 5 or 6 we tried in labs on campus. She was already in the process of switching over to GMail, but she has stuff on her hotmail account she needs for school.
Any help would be appreciated!

I really don't know what to tell you; I don't have any problem logging in at hotmail. I encounter this problem occasionally, when the system is really busy. Are you certain she is using the correct name and password? Good luck!

Strange. How long has it been going on.

You always seem to have computer problems, do what I do hit it or stab it.

Feds have taken her account offline for inspection.

If there's nothing wrong, it'll be available in a day or two.

I assume she signs in regularly since she has school stuff on there?

According to their help section, this type message is usually an internet connection issue. But that doesn't make sense if you are able to log in.

Does she have MSN messenger? If so, has she tried logging on through that?

Sorry if that doesn't help. I am out of ideas. Contact them for support/help.
