Hi hayley,
I'm sorry you are still experiencing problems on your computer. Hotmail is notorious for having a lot of problems that seem to happen at random times. In regards to browsers, it's up to you. But i can tell you that Firefox is more secure and expandable than IE and most users I have assisted with issues like this have resolved their issue by using Firefox.
The other problem can be that you have other 3rd party antivirus and internet security applications running, which can cause conflicts with Norton 360. Please check and remove any other 3rd party antivirus and internet security applications.
Although this problem does not appear to be related to Norton 360 since everything else is working fine on your system, please follow the steps below to properly remove and reinstall Norton 360.
1. Click on the following link to download the Norton Removal Tool:
Norton Removal Tool and Instructions
2. After you run the tool, please restart your computer. Then log in to Windows again and run the removal tool again. Restart your computer after it is finished running the second time as well.
3. Make sure that your internet connection is working properly, and then reinstall Norton 360. Towards the end of the installation process, the LiveUpdate feature will automatically run and download and install updates to both the program files and definition files. By default, LiveUpdate is set to "Automatic" and it will check for and download updates in the background, multiple times per day.
4. When the installation is complete, please manually run LiveUpdate to make sure that all of the updates are downloaded and applied. To do so, Click Start-> All Programs->Norton 360->LiveUpdate. LiveUpdate will run again and download and install any additional updates that are available. When this is complete, close the LiveUpdate window by clicking the "Finish" button.
By default, as long as you are logged in to Windows and connected to the Internet, LiveUpdate will run in the background a few times a day and automatically download and install any future updates.
Since Norton 360 has a Personal Firewall built-in, you also want to make sure that the Windows Firewall is turned off. Please check this setting in the Control Panel.
Let me know if this fixes the problem.
Thanks,
Mike
