I just installed Firefix, ran CCleaner to clean browser files and Registry. Now when I go to outlook.live I get

"Network Protocol Error

An error occurred during a connection to outlook.live.com.

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the network protocol was detected.

   Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem."

Hotmail was working with Chrome immediately before I installed Chrome.

Did you reboot as well after that?

Yes, I rebooted. Last time I tried, I got "The connection has timed out. The server at www.hotmaill.com is taking too long to respond.

It's going through several "handshake", etc urls.

Works fine with Chrome.

Other urls seem to work ok.

Same here. Past couple of weeks my GMail started throwing errors, then Google News, and none of the Google-branded sites are working right; I have to click and Close Tab 3 or 4 times before news.google forwards me to the correct URL. I've slowly been slipping into ProtonMail and Feedly. Similar UX's, but bareable, at least.

Good thing is that only one person knows my ProtonMail account, so I can use it without the typical battery of SPAM that I get deluded in my GMail account.
