I recently had to reinstall my software and can not get my hotmail account
working with outlook express again. Any suggestions as to what is wrong.
We have 2 computers and it still works fine on the other one.

Here is the the text of the error:

Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account: 'Hotmail',
Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol:
HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Invalid login.', Port 0, Secure(SSL): No, Error
Number: 0x800CCC32

Any help would be most appreciated.

Authentication fails when you use Outlook or Outlook Express to try to log
on to a HTTP-based mail server if you use Internet Explorer version 7.0:

Did you install it with IE7?

If you do, then please try this file:
WindowsXP-KB904942-v2-x86-ESN.exe

You can download it from:
http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...v2-x86-ESN.exe

It fix the IE7 bug for Outlook and Outlook Express.

I went into the option in internet explorer. Set security to custom level
used defaults and under security-user authentication -logins I checked
automatic login only in interconnect zone. That seemed to work.
However, at the same time, I went into IE (ver 6) and set the Privacy to
“accept all cookies� but after I set it back to medium OE still worked.
Hope this helps.
