I took this screenie a few hours ago:

I find it really stupid how adverts have messed up the look of hotmail homepage and that no-one has noticed yet. Maybe its only me..being bored, but i thought i might as well start a topic.

It looks like a CSS error, maybe they were doing some updating to the code?

Well, I haven't noticed yet because it's never happened to me. I was on it a few hours ago when I got home from work and it looked fine.

Its the same now, but with a 'sun kissed tan' advert instead.

Try it..

All you have to do is click

Ummm.... it's still perfectly fine for me... you using something other than IE? That's probably the problem... yeah... all those non-IE users... j/k

No, really though. It's loading fine for me. It could just be a script error on your end.

Im using Avant which is oviously based upon IE so i don't see to much of a problemo with it. I may download firefox but then again it doesn't really matter to much. I'll try it on my other machine (the supreme one ) later once i've drilled some holes and got some wire. (dont ask)

Its fine for me on firefox too.

Yeh its gone now.. on both of my pc's it seems to be working fine. Strange. Probs something..somewhere went wrong.

Like i said they were probably just testing something out and you stumbled across it. Or it was some weird CSS error

I don't see why they wanted to test out sticking a vertical ad on top of the login box. Also don't people test things for websites offline?

LOL that really looked screwed,but I would never notice that Mine always signs in automaticly.

I think that was a CSS error

lol cant say ive ever coz an advertisement that stupidly place on the hotmail site. serves ya right for not having the cookies to auto sign you in
