If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options "whois live.com" (whois available on this and other web sites:
http://www.trimmail.com/news/tools/) confirms that live.com is registered to
Microsoft.
Why does this URL not use SSL (start with https://)? Why is it that when I
use this URL except I start it with https://, there is no server certificate
for me to view?
