Hotmail question.

[tsantsa]

I use hotmail as my main email account since I use MSN messenger, it's rather quick and easy to use. Anyhow, whenever I get a link to click on there is always this annoying tab at the top telling me that I am visiting a site outside of the hotmail network or something like that. (this happens whenever I click on the link in the email.)

I was wondering if anyone knows how to remove that annoying tab at the top.

Hello,

Well I just signed up for msn email and noticed the same thing.

One way to manually get around it is to copy the shortcut and paste it into your address bar. That way you'll leave the msn site and go directly to the link.

You can then just click your browsers back button to check email again.

A little cumbersome but it would work.

Use Outlook Express to access hotmail ! ! !

MSN's web interface sucks!

Use Outlook Express to access hotmail ! ! !

You have to pay for their "premium" option for that now though, right?

Dont know about premium option, but if you have Microsoft Office (which the majority of people do), then just use Micrsoft Outlook.

Nope, just add a new email account in Outlook Express
Under option just us http instead of pop3

On the one hand, MSN has been saying for about a month or so that you can only get that feature with their "plus" pay option. It no longer works on a friend's computer I tried it on.



On the other hand, I've used that feature for years now, and it still works for me. Maybe it's still enabled for people who've had it for a long time, like a kind of grandfather clause? Go figure.

I'll look into outlook.

Is it outlook, outlook express or both?
