Suddenly I've lost the ability to download any sort of attachments with my Hotmail account.

I've tried 3 Macs using Snow Leopard and Lion, on wireless and wired connections - as well as a PC on a different internet connection.

Have tried Safari & Firefox on the Macs and IE on the PC.

I can view the attachments using "online view" but if I try to download from there I get a message from my browser saying  "You have asked Firefox to connect securely to  dub126.afx.ms, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure."

If I try to download directly from my inbox there is no activity at all.


However, on a different Hotmail account I can download attachments - on the same computers / connections that were previously giving me issues.

So it would seem my particular Hotmail account is giving me issues rather than anything my side.

I have not changed any settings or system recently.


This is crippling my ability to work so I'm a bit desperate...!
