Cannot log on to hotmail...vista.

Hello, just wondering if any of you lovely people can help me?

Since my computer has been updated to vista i just cannot log onto my hotmail. I might have emails from jobs, etc, that i really need to read so i am quite desperate!

When i log on it just goes to a page saying 'object move here' and when click on the 'here' it just goes back to that page again!!! Frustrating!

I have tried clearing my cookies and that did not work. I have tried changing the security settings to medium and that actually worked for a bit and then it stopped working.

I am useless at technology so i am trying my best to think of things and look up advice. But nothing seems to be doing the trick.

Also my password and log in details NEVER save on any website and every time i go back to a page i have to log in again.

Thank you for any replies :p

    You are presumably using IE7 or IE8?
    Have you tried accessing it with a different browser, eg Firefox?

    Yes, i am using IE8. I have tried Firefox and it is exactly the same. Must be something to do with the settings perhaps? I just don't have a clue!! I can get on messenger, but when i click an email alert that pops up it just will not let me open my inbox! So it teases me basically by letting me know about all of the messages i am getting, but wont let me read them!! Arrrrrrghhhh!

    Seems more like a Hotmail problem then-can you try logging in from another PC to see if the problem is still there?
    Why not simply set up Windows Mail to download your Hotmail into it?
