I can't attach photos or files when composing hotmail email in Firefox, but can in MS IE
Why would hotmail allow me to attach photos and files while using MS Internet Explorer, but not in Firefox? I was able to do this in Firefox only a few days ago, but not today.

Sorry to hear about your troubles. I tested with a Word doc and was able to attach, so I don't think it's a problem in Hotmail/Windows Live Mail.
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
1. Clear Firefox's Cache
Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
2. If needed, delete your hotmail.com and live.com cookies (you will have to login again)
Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Carefully remove the site's cookies individually, do NOT click remove "all" unless you really want to remove all your cookies (there is no undo for this dialog).
If you use the NoScript extension, check the pop-up and see whether there are any domains listed that you have not approved. Microsoft has split some of its scripts onto wlxrs.com, in addition to hotmail.com and live.com.
Any luck?
Also, although possibly not related to your problem, I have to remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at getfirefox.com.
You have a corrupted user agent:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.0.10 NET_mmhpset
See Find what version of Firefox you are using and Web sites or add-ons incorrectly report incompatible browser

Check the general.useragent prefs on the about:config page.
You can open the about:config page via the location bar, just like you open a website.
Filter: general.useragent
If any general.useragent prefs are bold (user set) then right-click that pref and choose Reset.
