Hotmail question

Postby MireGoji » Fri Jun 23, 2006 10:30 am

Now, is it just me, or has anyone else noticed this:

Since about two weeks ago on Saturday, when I logged into Hotmail to check my e-mail, I noticed that where on the browser window (like, here, it says Club Tokyo -oOo- Monster Zero, et cetera) it had "MSN Hotmal - Today" and the browser name, it just had "-- Microsoft Internet Explorer".

At first I was concerned that there may be something up, or a security risk. So I changed the way I accessed Hotmail. Instead of putting hotmail.com into my Address bar, I went to the MSN homepage and navigated from there. It was still going on, though.

It was then I noticed that, after a few seconds of the page being fully loaded, the topbar of the browser window changed from "-- Microsoft Internet Explorer" to "MSN Hotmail - Today", et cetera.

I'm not sure if this has anything to do with me still being on dial-up (lag, or something), or if it was just something that happened whenever the main page after a Hotmail login had been changed or whatever.

I kinda doubt that there's a possible security risk - after all, this has been happening for the last two weeks almost, so if there were something up, I would have read about it somewhere, or Microsoft would have issued some sort of alert or gotten it fixed.

I was just wondering, has anyone else noticed this or have some ideas as to what this is?
