445533 - I update to FF 3.0 and then Hotmail said to update. Full version will not work now.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 427610

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Patricia George]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0

Cannot sign into hotmail unless I do it twice.  I upgraded FF and Hotmail to the newest versions.  Now, I cannot access the full version of Hotmail and am forced to use classic version.  I can access full version just fine if I use MSN Explorer instead of going through Firefox.  What gives and how come someone can't find the bug and fix it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start Firefox
2.Sign Into Hotmail
3.Try to use full version of Hotmail
Actual Results:  
Classic comes up every time telling me to upgrade to newest version of Firefox.

Expected Results:  
Clearing cache and history, reinstalling Firefox 3.0, rebooting, installing SP 3 of XP and still can't use full version of Hotmail with FF 3.0 and have to sign in twice into Windows Live.

Sign into Hotmail the first attempt and allow me to access full version of Hotmail.

It's up to Microsoft to make the "full" version of Hotmail to be Firefox 3 compatible.  There is nothing here Mozilla can do.
