I recently deployed a desktop lockdown gpo for student logins in a SBS 2003 R2 deployment. It worked pretty well, except for one thing; students could not log onto hotmail. It is possible to log into hotmail when logged on as an admin. When logged on as a student(a member of the group subject to the lockdown gpo) you can reach the login page,but after entering username and password, the page seems to 'hang' or not respond any longer, even though the webpage status toolbar shows 'done'. I didn't set any restrictions (knowingly) on this URL nor on Active X etc. I am having a real problem figuring out what is wrong and how to diagnose. I would appreciate any help! Thanks, Duncan
