Hotmail & Safari?

I can almost NEVER log into my hotmail on my mac. It is really starting to upset me. I dont want to have to go search out a pc every time I want to check my email. Do Microsoft and Mac have such a rivalry that nothing works well on a mac if it was made by Microsoft? If for some reason I will never be able to log into my hotmail, can some one tell me how to at least forward it to my .mac accont so I CAN check it?

Thanks,
Kris

Try a different browser:

Is should definitely work in Firefox or Camino.

I have absolutely no problem getting into Hotmail with Safari. What happens when you try? What version of Safari do you have?

I had the same problem, it's just that with safari, hotmail is unable to go directly to your inbox (don't ask me why). So all it does is give you a little notification and a hotmail error page. From that page through two links you will be at your inbox, but that's besides the point ("My Page" being the first one... I think). The real point is that you need to get Firefox.

Firefox: http://download-firefox.org/

Download it now! :yinyang:
