Yes, I have the exact same issue. Whenever I want to check my email through Messenger, IE6 pops up…

if chrome is set as the default browser, live messenger should open the link in chrome…

i tested it in the latest version of the live messenger and it works fine.

For nearly a couple months now I’ve been using Hotmail in Chrome with no problems – then earlier this week Hotmail stopped updating the mailbox (deletes, read mail, etc.) real time. So when I refresh the window to check for new messages, messages I’ve read and deleted reappear as unread and undeleted. Arrgh.

Anyone else having this problem? I just installed the latest version of Chrome Beta – no change in the problem.

Argh! this makes me really angry. this last year i have found microsoft to be completely F***ed.
firstly, (yes, i know, stupid!) i got vista. what a ball-ache.
secondly, trying to get rid of IE on my computer. again, a ball-ache. and its still bloody sitting there, hiding in a folder and taking up valuable space.
and now. hotmail. jebus-christ. i just want to reply to an email! of course microsoft is too retarded to get up with the play. fingers crossed this patch works.
PS i love Chrome. what a beautiful creation!

I’ve used the fix successfully on two different machines but noticed last week Hotmail was sometimes unresponsive (nothing worked) within Chrome. I restarted Chrome a couple of times – no luck. I waited a half hour and it worked fine.

Go figure.
