Thanks Brian, but I'm not using Outlook so there is no 'tools' menu. I'm simply on the MS windows live Hotmail website. Is that a function of Firefox then?

Right. I saw "windows live hotmail" and took that to mean "Windows Live Mail" (the client). I'll have to look through the Hotmail options.Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

There has to be a way. It doesn't seem to be a function of Firefox or IE. It's a setting withing Hotmail. It never used to do this...
