MSN is my homepage, I am using hotmail for my e-mail...this error message above comes up about every 2 e-mails, no matter if I'm reading, deleting, sending, moving e-mails....about every 2nd e-mail I have to refresh my browser. I also use Firefox for my Comcast e-mail and NEVER get this error message.

If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.

Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
