Is anyone else experiencing strange problems with the above?
I got the following message when logging in:
Upgrade your web browser
We recommend that you upgrade your web browser so you can get the most out of Windows Live Hotmail. Upgrading should only take a few minutes. To get started, choose one of the browsers below:
* Microsoft Internet Explorer
* Mozilla Firefox
* Google Chrome
* Apple Safari
Why would Microsoft promote rivals?

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else |
From memory when this happened to me, I ended up having to download all of them (even the ones I already had) before the damn thing went away.
Turns out the one thing Microsoft can't avoid is pushiness. |

You don't need to install any of them for the message to go away. Just delete it from your "startup" menu and hey presto it won't load up again.
It isn't Microsoft being pushy it is an EU ruling that forced Microsoft to offer people the choice of browser. If Microsoft had the choice they wouldn't be promoting any of their rivals!  |

"I said it was an EU directive - was just joking that even when forced to push the competition, the pushiness remained.
"
I know and I was saying the "pushiness" only stays if you let it and like to complain about it! 
You still don't have to install every browser choice that is offered for it to go away as I explained above, also clicking the box on the pop-up to say you are happy with the one you have already would also make it go away for ever!
Still isn't Microsoft being pushy at all, they were made to do it! |
