Cry problem with MSN hotmail sign up page

Hi
When I go to MSN on my comp it is the only site that has all the words
very tiny, kinda like inscripted you can't read any thing.

if I want to start a hotmail account, I can't due to letters are so small I can't read them .. it;s less the size than i am writing now ...

I have no problem with any other site, Just MSN page and sign up page for hotmail ? Help I am confused . goldenyrs

Yea, i've had that problem from time to time.

I just go to the View Menu, Select Text Size, and jump it up a few notches until i'm done with that page and it's incredibly small writing.

While you are on the msn page go to the toolbar view/text size and make sure it is set at normal or higher.

Posted at almost the same time Rashiki.

you might not have noticed this on the msn site, but you can now sign into your msn messenger with a yahoo name.

and, as we all know, yahoo is super easy to set up an account with.

might be worth a shot.

I don't understand this use of Netscape, but I guess that's a different story for a different day.

Try = http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/fil...id,8308,00.asp = "With this free application, keep in contact with your friends whether they use IRC, AOL, ICQ, MSN, or Yahoo. The features from each service are retained, so you can search for buddies, set your status as available or unavailable, change your passwords, and so on, without having to leave the program." = http://www.download.com/3000-2150-10047473.html

or - = ebuddy.com/index.php = A web application that enables you to chat with your MSN, AOL and Yahoo buddies without having to install any program or Java applet. To use the web version of eBuddy, all you need is a JavaScript enabled browser on your computer and it works even if you are behind a firewall. If you are on the road, you can use the mobile version of eBuddy to chat with your buddies. Every mobile device that supports xHTML or WAP can be used."

or = GAIM = http://sourceforge.net/projects/gaim = http://gaim.sf.net

actually, the newest gaim messenger can again connect to msn.

have to use the beta though.
it was recently discussed here, if you'd like to read it: Gaim - startup error

however, wasn't the problem not having an msn account? when did a problem with the messenger client itself develop?

also, i'll mention it again, you can just go to yahoo.com and make a new email account, and then without installing the yahoo messenger sign into the official msn messenger with that yahoo name.
