I am using winproxy 2.8h, when we try to access hotmail.com through our proxy, it does not access the page. Also we are using MSN, and we are able to access our email inbox page at hotmail.com.

Will appreciate all the help I can get.

Regards
Aamer

You don't exactly say at which point the connexion fails. If that's right after when you have entered your password, you have to remember that HOTMAIL uses https to transmit your password, as shown by the quick appearance of a closed lock at the bottom of your browser. Have you properly configured your proxy to allow https to go through ?

I have the same problem. When you enter your password in Hotmail you get "10053 Software caused connection to abort" back from the Proxy. How do I fix this please ?
