I cannot get on to my hotmail page.
I sign in and get,
[Secure Connection Failed
login.live.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate expired on 21/07/2009 00:59.

(Error code: sec_error_expired_certificate)]

Access denied/account closed. then it gives you an option of clicking below & following certain procedures. There is nowhere to click below. How do I contact them. Tried e-mailing from another address & all they do is thank me for alerting them to a spam problem. Don't know how you can answer this since I can't get in there. Also tried importing to another e-mail address & they blocked that.

When i sign on to MSN i can see all of my contacts online or offline. Yet i can never see (one person, un-named) and I'd really like to talk to them! They can see me online, but I can't see them (When they talk to me, we can talk absolutely fine,but they're status is 'offline'). I have never blocked them and there status seems to be 'offline' all the time as there address is always in my contacts. I just don't know why I can never see them when they're online. It's really frustrating! Any ideas? Or ways I could stop this?

They need to allow you to see their on-line status, and I'm guessing the haven't.

every time i have tried to click on the icon it says before anything comes up Windows Live Messenger is not responding

It did this to me a few times and all i did was change to a older version but then it worked and when they brought out a patch after i emailed them for help they emailed me back saying that it had been changed so i got the new version and it worked for about a month and it just isnt working now i have had to use Ebuddy for the past 2-3 months
PLLLLLEEEEEAAAASSSSSEEE I AM BEGGING YOU CAN YOU HELP

PS one of my friends had the same problem and all he did was clear evrything off his laptop so it was like new and then got it bak and it started working but i dont want to do tht until the last reort because my future business plans are on here and i can't back them up and cant afford to buy a external hard drive.
I read the arcticle and it didnt help nothing worked i have also tried to reinstall MSN about 20 times and then gave up

I hope you can help

Thank you in advance
Sam

I don't have an answer for your messenger problem. However your statement "I can't back them up" is a serious, serious problem. You are risking losing everything if your hard drive fails or some other problem arrises. FIND A WAY TO BACK UP. NOW.

Then, yes, reinstalling Windows from scratch sounds like a fine idea.

I have a hotmail account that I have never been able to sign in with since I created it. The problem is, I put a capital letter at the first of it and every time I click to sign in, the capital goes away.

I have not been able to log into my HOTMAIL account all day today. When I try i get the following:
ogin.live.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate has expired.
The certificate will not be valid until 6/15/2009 5:00 PM.

(Error code: sec_error_expired_issuer_certificate)

What is wrong and what can or should I do? I can access all my other favorites etc.
