i wonder how many premium users will drop their accounts cos they no longer need 2GB and 250MB is sufficient. That'll cost MS.

Also ad-words is no where near as ugly and intrusive as it the ads in hotmail

I have seen some weird 'page can not be found' errors in the ad-words.... not sure if it's cause it's still in beta, or if it's cause I write some weird and freaky emails. In either case, they're not an issue for me.

Not on one of my old Hotmail accounts - have just checked it now, and it's still showing at 2MB maximum mailbox usage

the antivirus/spam filter has been recently installed. It seems to be working.

For example, I have forwarded a 'problem' ntl account to my hotmail address.

Instead of the 60 a day average spam messages in the ntl account, I'm getting maybe 5 in junk/bulk mail folders in my hotmail ;)

Must have upgraded on my hotmail too, just logged on and suprisingly only 20 spam mails have been recieved over the past few days, where usually it would be 70-100!!!
