After upgrading to 4, Hotmail now refuses to allow attachments claiming a plug-in is missing and that it needs to restart in 32-bit mode. I have never seen this message in 10 years of using Hotmail

Now when I want to add an attachment to an email, a yellow bar drops down saying I need a plug-in that can only work in 32-bit mode, and therefore Firefox needs to restart. However this yellow bar only appears for a nano-second before it disappears! I have a MacBook Pro and am baffled by this. Hotmail works perfectly fine on Safari.
