When I try to get into Hotmail, I am suddenly being required to sign in each time, even if I've been on that site 20 times before that day. Each time I sign in I check the boxes that tell it to remember me & my password but it won't. I wrote Hotmail help forum & they told me to try optimizing my browser first to try to solve this. I don't know how to. Help!
