Well, I opened my hotmail in Explorer and it works! I don't know why this is. Thanks for the questions as it made me think about using another browser. I really appreciate this site and the good people who are there to help! ;D

You may want to download and give FireFox a try...i think you'll be pleasantly suprised...
Also look to see if DSL internet is available in your area...about 3 to 5 times faster for not much more...
You can search for price and availibility Here (http://www.dslreports.com/stest)  just by entering your area code or zip code...
