Title: Hotmail not working
Post by: RMS Canada on January 30, 2010, 21:14:11: For some reason, Hotmail has been down. I've been trying to log on since Thursday and it keeps telling me that either my email address or password is wrong despite the face that I typed it in correctly. At one point, it went into lock down because it said that I typed my email address and password wrong too many times Is there anybody else here on the Forum who uses Hotmail and has the same problem as I do? I desperately need help!

That's odd because a next door neighbour of mine is having the same problem.

I'm using Live.no at the end of my e-mail account ;P

Perhaps a malware has changed your password. Have you tried emailing the help people- they are normally very quick to respond.

I'm very terrified of losing my contacts. I did however start a new email address.

My big sister Jessica changed the password but I am closing down my old email address for good.
