  I tried to use <CTRL><F5> on the page above, no joy.
  
  Still using Firefox.

  David,
  I'm able to view that page with no issues using IE 7.0.6001.

  What Security / Privacy settings are you using in IE 7?
  
  I have my set to:
  - Trusted sites is using Medium security
  - Added "microsoft.com" to trusted sites
  - IE's Privacy settings to Medium
      - If you have it set on High, then take sure to trust cookies from Microsoft.com and Live.com

  Changed settings to match yours, still getting the same error.
  
  Took it over to a Vista VM (new) and it worked OK.
  
  What gives?
  
  Is the IE7 on the WinXPSP3 broken? How to test?

  That's what I'm running at home, and I haven't noticed anything strange.

  Try deleting all Microsoft cookies and javascript in your IE 7 cache. I've had to do it more than once to restore full access.
