hotmail loop

Recently my hotmail account has been going through a strange and annoying loop.
It asks me to type in some characters to stop automated fraud, I am then
sent to another page to enter my e-mail address and password. I then return
to the page to enter the characters again and so on and so forth. It only
happened today and no new software has been installed, it started when I was
replying to an e-mail. MSN messenger is fine though.

That's not courtesy of me, I'd never tell anyone to turn off IE caching.

Hey Lance,
I realize you are trying to help, but in case you havent noticed Jonathan
isn't overly thrilled with:
1) repeating his advise without his permission and
2) giving bad info and using his name.

My suggestion, If you have something of YOUR OWN to add to the group, please
do. and if you don't, then.. well, don't.
