hotmail stopped automatically downloading new emails and needs to be refreshed to download them

Hotmail has stopped automatically downloading my emails as they arrive. I now have to refresh Hotmail whenever I want to check out whether I have new emails. I thought it was an error with "sign on to Messenger", but unfortunately not. It also doesn't download picture previews and says "click if it's taking too long" and then you can click on the file and it will download. It's a bit rickety at the moment and I thought it might be Hotmail itself that's the problem, but can't find any help in the forums there.

I had not noticed that change, I did comment recently in another thread entitled: My slideshow of incoming photos in hotmail doesn't work since 19th of july in Firefox, in Explorer it works okay it may be worth watching that to see if any further comments are made.
