Try to delete the live.com and passport.net cookies and maybe the cookies from other MS (msn) sites as well.

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
  • Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
  • Use "Firefox > Options" instead of "Tools > Options" if the menu bar is hidden.
