    Hi to all,

    I have recently upgraded to FF2 from FF 1.5.x and IE7 from 6.

    I have Nortons AV and firewall and the pc is xp sp2.

    Whenever I launch a browser and try to get to hotmail, it tells me it won't work and I should download IE.

    The details are sketchy here as I can't log on to the affected pc to get exact details, but I am hoping someone might look at this and say 'oh you doofus...just do this!!!"

    Thanks for any help

    Did you just recently install Norton's and which version do you have?

    Norton Anti-Virus or the Internet Security suite?

    The reason I am asking is there is an Ad-Blocking feature on Norton's that causes problems when trying to access your hotmail account.

    Hi Matacumbie

    Sorry for thew delay - I thought I was getting email notifications for replies - apparently not!

    No, i haven't installed Norton Anti-Virus or the Internet Security suite recently, but I do run them both and Mrs B is a new user on this pc.

    NIS 8.5.0.114

    NAV 11.5.8.1

    I will investigate ad blocking...

    Many thanks for your suggestions
