The link provided in the prior answer only refers you to a user forum, which may or may not help you. Try the following, after making sure you haven't disabled any scripts.
  • I've found that typing the information by hand (rather than using the system clipboard or a password manager to enter it) will often solve.
  • It's possible the problem is on your end. If so, follow these steps:

In case the problem is on your end:

  1. Clear your cache. You'll find specific instructions for your particular browser at http://www.refreshyourcache.com/. Clearing cookies also could help, so you may want to do both. If the problem is not solved...
  2. Restart your computer. If the problem is not solved...
  3. It may be necessary to update your browser (or even to switch browsers, in the worst case); links for updating various browsers may be found on this Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/help.php?page=742

Hello, HelpOwl is not affiliated with Hotmail, so we can't help to recover access to your account. You'll need to contact Microsoft support directly; you can see how to do that here.
