    Default Problem with hotmail folders

    I am having problems accessing the folders I created in my hotmail accounts, using both IE and Mozilla. When I go to my account I can read the emails in my inbox fine, but when I try to look for emails in a folder I created some time ago, I get a message in IE saying opening file (and a long filename that stretches to the side of the dialogue box) and nothing seems to happen. With Mozilla, I get a box 'Mozilla does not know how to handle this file, open with or save' etc.

    When you hover over the folders at the side, the address seems to be a javascript window, I have reloaded javascript and rebooted, but still the same.

    Any ideas please?

    I am going to check from another machine, but that wont be for a day or two.

    Tried it, still the same, tried other PC's they work fine, feeels like reinstall time again, but at least this install lasted a few years, unlike win98, which only lasted a few months!!

    FFS, just tried forwarding a message to my POP account, and it went perfectly, previously it opened a 'file downloading' box, it did forward the email but the box sat there until a timeout occured, now I find everything is working correctly again, wierd or what!!
