Firefox has a turning symbol to indicate processing going on. When I have been sending a message in Hotmail Outlook this symbol continues indefinitely as if the message is still being sent. This does not happen if I call up Hotmail using Internet Explorer. The messages actually were sent. This resulted in my trying again and again - and in fact sending repeated messages to the wife of someone gravely ill! I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed three time and the problem persists.
