Does Hotmail Work in China? Hi Everyone... Thanks for your message Michael, I totally agree with your comments and am sure that this is an IP problem from Microsoft - If it wasn't obvious before it is now that Torpark (program that blocks your IP) lets you go to any hotmail, msn, etc. site. I am 100% sure that this should work on everyones computer although as you said Michael, you may need to go to the help pages and adjust some settings. It worked straight away for me. I don't usually get involved with forums or things on the internet but I really feel passionate about this because it is terrible not to have email, especially being overseas and this is sometimes the only contact people have with back home and people often rely on it so much for business. Anything that I can do, I am happy to help. Mikee...I am from Australia. Take Care Everyone, Amelia. |

Does Hotmail Work in China? Hi Mikee, Firstly, can you at least download the program? When you download it, double click on the icon and select run, then choose a folder where you want to extract it to. When done you should have a folder saying english (if you downloaded the english version) open it. Then open the folder torpark. There should be 5 folders and then an icon named Torpark. Click on the icon and wait. If it disappears and doesn't bring up an internet window, click on it again until you get the window. At first you probably have to click on it at least twice. When you get the internet window you should be able to access any site, including hotmail.com or whatever way you use to get into hotmail. If you have the new beta live version of hotmail I suggest you revert back to the old hotmail - you should then be able to get in via messenger (the old or beta version) If you don't use messenger then you can use torpark every time to get into your hotmail. It might be a little slow at first, depending on the computer but I am positive it should work. This can be taken on a portable USB disk so you can use it on any computer that you go to. Have another try and see how you go. Just be patient - I was going nuts with no hotmail. I could see on my messenger that I had all these new emails but I couldn't get in. Be patient with Torpark and it will work. Let me know if you have any more problems and or success. Good Luck Mikee! Amelia |

Does Hotmail Work in China? Hi Everyone... I am not going to get into the little argument going on here, I just want to remind you of the tip that I have given but no one seems to be reading....Go to google, download a free small program called Torpark. You just download unzip and click on the .exe file. You can put this on a USB disk and take it to the internet cafe or anywhere when you access your hotmail. What it does is block your ip address so they can't detect where you are coming from. (Seeing as hotmail is blocked in China) I used this program to change my live beta hotmail back to the old one and now I can access hotmail through messenger but if you don't have messenger or want to access it through hotmail.com you can just load this program anytime anywhere and it will work. I hope this helps people as it seems like everyone is still having problems. I was going crazy not having access for a week a couple of weeks ago and I really feel sorry for those who still have problems. I hope this helps anyway, if you have any problems just leave a message. Actually here is the link for torpark while I think of it: torpark.nfshost.com/ Good Luck... |

Does Hotmail Work in China? Hi Aaron, I am glad it worked for you. I think the problem is that a lot of you have the Beta version of hotmail and you can't even get in there to change it back to the original. Using Torpark will allow you to get in, then you can change it back....Then you can use any messenger to get into your hotmail. I am using the Beta Version of messenger and have no problems. It is really worth using as it is quite a quick fix...Good Luck! |

Does Hotmail Work in China? Hi Larry, Read the posts and you will have some idea. Hotmail are admitting that there is no access to any website that uses the Net Passport Log in...whose fault it is has not really been determined. Read my previous post and this might help your situation. I did it for me and my partner and now we can get into hotmail through messenger...hope it helps. |

Does Hotmail Work in China? Hi Everyone.... I have been reading all of you comments and have been in the same boat. For two weeks have only had one days access. I am in Guangdong Province. BUT...I have a solution. Go to google, type in Torpark and download it. It is a small file. Extract it and use the exe. file. It will open up a window and you can use this to get into you hotmail. This may take a couple of goes as it did me but I finally got in. I had the Beta version which I just opted out of...now I can open my hotmail from my messenger. I think this should work. I also sent an email to hotmail complaining and now that I just accessed my hotmail it said that this issue is only in China and they are "attempting to fix as soon as possible blah blah" I love my hotmail and have had it so long so it would be a great pain to change now. I am giving them another chance as it is ok for now but I advise everyone to not sign up for the Beta version for now. Fingers crossed this fixes all of you problems. Good Luck! |
