Ok so my problem is that for the last 72 hours I havent been able to access my hotmail account from any computer. However, I am able to access other hotmail accounts from my computer and others. I have no idea what the problem could be. Any ideas??

I just went through a similar thing here. As it turned out my wife was still logged onto NetPassport in the background on Instant messenger, she hadn't signed out, had me scratching my head for a bit lol. So you might want to make sure noone else is signed in on the PC's. Another solution is when you try to log in click on the 'forgot my password' option and reenter it from there, worth a try. Another route is to open your IM and go in from there (click on the inbox just below your avatar). Should be some other ideas out there too but that is all I can think of at this moment, hope it helps.

Hotmail is rumoured to be carrying out updates... Me facing problem too!

wouldn't that cause more hotmail accounts to not be able to be accessed? I've tried changing my password too, and I still wasn't able to access my account.

Im having the same problem, emptied my cache, tried using firefox, tried going via msn/messenger, tried changing my password, nothing - the page just fails to load every time

For now im able to login but i got the usual 2MB crap account

I'm having the same problem (cant access hotmail) and it's not passwd related either coz my msn messenger is working fine ...

i had the same thing happen to me a year ago, they said they were updating their servers and some accounts would be temporarily (i cant spell) unable to access.

You could always Email hotmail with the question for a formal responce
