[ale] hotmail on Linux

[Kevin O'Neill Stoll]

I'm using Mozilla 1.7 on w2k while accesing hotmal. I
haven't noticed anything. Assuming that the linux version
responds the same, she shouldn't have any issues.

Also, my dear ole' mum, uses Mozilla on WinXP without any
complaints. I was actually worried that converting her
would cause support headaches for me, but to my suprise she
"Loves the little dinosaur!"

Yes, she really said that.....
