Firefox and Windows Live Hotmail Full Version

When you signed in Windows Live Hotmail, did you experience this problem?



I did not use an old Firefox browser.



This is the solution I found from the Internet, and I tried.
Type about:config for the address.



Remove the value of the general.useragent.vendor so it's blank.





After signed in, I switched to Full Version





Here I can switch to the full version of Hotmail successfully.



I see that Windows Live Hotmail is not good for small-size window.



Here the snapshot when I maximize the window.



Opera, that has no problem on using full version of Windows Live Hotmail, also has problems with small-size window like this..



Even using Internet Explorer on my Windows XP does not solve the problem. So it's about the design of Windows Live Hotmail.

Internet Explorer 6 Running on My Ubuntu

Sometimes I need to access certain web sites that need Internet Explorer to get the content formatted properly. Especially Microsoft web sites.
So I used the IEs4Linux.
You can download from: http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
Then extract the compressed tar.gz file.

Steps:
$ wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
$ tar zxvf ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
$ cd ies4linux-*
$ ./ies4linux





The result after setup completed.



I can run a web site that run ActiveX control to download contents like MCT Web Site.



Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA) also run as if running in Windows.
