hotcomet Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Does using ccleaner cause any known problems with hotmail. I ran the cleaner on a friend's computer and now she says she cannot get into her hotmail account. She is using IE7, windows xp. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DennisD Posted June 27, 2010 Moderators Share Posted June 27, 2010 Hi hotcomet, and welcome to Piriform. It's possible for CCleaner to delete saved log-in information if the cookie relevant to Hotmail is deleted, but it shouldn't affect actually getting into the account. Have a read here, as their seems to be a current problem with logging in to Hotmail: http://www.windowslivehelp.com/product.aspx?productid=1 Windows Live Hotmail is currently experiencing login issues. You may receive errors when attempting to login to your Live Hotmail account. I have a Hotmail account, and have never had a problem caused by CCleaner. Hope that helps.

Aethec Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 She should update to IE8. It *might* resolve the problem, and it will make web developpers happy Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWebAtom Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The web developers would be even happier if she went to a Gecko or Webkit based browser, but alas some people love their *trusty* old IE. I'm Shane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikki605 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 *cough* IE 9 will be out soon *cough* But, as I understand it, IE9 will not be compatible with WinXP - read here. Win10 Pro x64 Desktop (Speccy) - Win10 Pro x64 Laptop (Speccy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aethec Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Oh...I forgot that. Anyway, she should not keep IE 7 as it is outdated since a long time. (Besides, IE 8 requires no hacks from web devs - but let's stay on topic) Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't use IE either, and like ident, that's my choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ishan_rulz Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Even though I'd never go back to IE, IE9 *looks* promising. Simplicity is hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not using a browser simply because an old version of it didn't taste your needs is quite ridiculous. I mean, at least test it before saying "I'll never use it again" (well, you can't really test IE9 yet, but...) Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ident Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I made no such comment for you to base that statement. No fate but what we make Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWebAtom Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Actually, the IE9 platform preview is available for download on the Microsoft site. Its support for CSS3 & HTML5 is quite impressive. I'm Shane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
