Hello,

When I try to log in to Hotmail using my other account, I get the message "It looks like someone else might be using your account". On the next screen I get "There's a temporary problem with the service. Please try again. If you continue to get this message, try again later."

I have tried this on several computers using Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari. This is going on for several days now. Please suggest on how to solve this.

Regards,

Arthur

Please try again. If you continue to get this message, try again later".So i am not able to access the code that microsoft will send to my mobile number.The other alternate mail address provided is also deactivated and used no more. And i have  also tried accessing my account using the security questions but the security answers provided doesn't satisfy the microsoft.This security procedure is creating rather more problems than solving security issues,
