 MSN Homepage Hotmail

Don't know if anyone else has been having this problem lately, but whenever I log on to MSN, my homepage always used to show what's in my inbox.

But for over a week or more now, it always says that I have no messages in my inbox, even though I do (my MSN Messenger tells me). Is there a fix for it?

You need to delete the MSN core files and reinstall MSN.

Follow the steps here »MSN Forum FAQ »How do I un-install the MSN software? (although I would just skip steps 1, 2 and 4 as they are unnecessary) and then download the software and reinstall from »membercenter.msn.com/download.aspx
