Default Lost connection with Hotmail

I suddenly lost connection with my Hotmail account. I tried deleting the .pst
file -- no good. I deleted the HTTP account, tried the repair tool, rebooted
-- no good.

Digging deeper, the Hotmail account is linked somehow to a mysterious 'temp'
file in my TEMP folder -- which I keep clean. So now that it can't find its
temp file, Outlook keeps asking me to login to Hotmail, not accepting the
login credentials, and goes on an endless loop.

This has happened many times before (it's why I don't use Outlook). Short of
unintalling Office XP (OUTLOOK 2002), how to fix it? But now I want to know
the cause and so avoid this in the future.
