I had the same problem, and downloaded Mozilla Firefox once again, after installation the problem was solved!

Maybe worth a try...

Good luck

Me too WTF maybe I'll move to Yahoo also.

I used print and could view my mail and open attachments.

But that isn't right.

Yahoo are more suck then hotmail. gmail better

Hi

I've tried several of the suggestions on here but nothing seems to work. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing Firefox but that didnt work. And Ive tried allowing it in my cookies/settings and that doesnt work. And I've tried allowing it with my Anti-virus/security settings but nothing seems to work!

I'm thinking I might just have to change to a different email provider!

I had faced the same problem. Use Hotmail feedback, but has no reply.
1 trick i found - if the mail still not open after u click, click on other such as Deleted or Sent on left pane.

Have you tried emptying the cache and dumping the cookies?

If you have ad block you must disable it on windows.live.com. Worked perfect!

Hi,
you should update you version of Firefox.
clear your cookies as well and enable javascript.
this should fix the problem.

This is another one of those MS things.
Firefox has resolved this issue ages ago (google chrome had a similar problem upon release of not allowing you to write an email once logged in)

What annoys me is I cannot get Firefox to remember my password or hotmail accounts like Internet explorer
but I'm guessing this is also Microsofts doing.
(it will only remember the last used account and still not the password)

It can't be a virus such as a trojan horse Generic PWS.y!h or still Generic Downloader.x!bd or still Generic Dropper!m. Recently, few weeks ago, I don't know how, I was infested by those virus. I haven't no peer to peer software, etc... Even the last version of the Malicious Software Removal Tool (May 2009) did not detect such virus and even if I've applied fix and updates. Same thing with Ad-Aware (The lastest version). The fact is I cannot open any hotmail message from IE or even Firefox. I got only "javascript;" at the status bar.

ex of infected directories and files:
C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\YOUR_USER\PROTECT.DLL
c:\Documents and Settings\your_user\protect.dll
c:\Documents and Settings\your_user\Menu Démarrer\Programmes\Démarrage\ChkDisk.dll
C:\SYSTEM VOLUME INFORMATION\_RESTORE{BA43CCBC-EA1C-4214-959D-93973F9258E8}\RP390\A0049899.DLL
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify\crypt Downloader-BAR
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\WPV201239013964.EXE
c:\WINDOWS\Temp\wpv201239013964.exe

The virus infected all accounts in the computer -

Finally, I killed the virus by running Norton antivirus.

Sup me know ge this soft were sucks

I too use firefox and i can use hotmail when i first open firefox but if i go to check it again without fully closing firefox the hotmail page doesnt load?

Anyone know why this is?

I had problem opening the hotmail web page, tried everything and this finally worked. I have been doing this to everyone's computer that had this problem and it had worked great.

Go to tools/options/contents/enable java script-advanced/check off disable or replace context menu.
