First:

See this about your hotmail problem.
http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=computers_for_beginners;action=display;num=1081799690

I found by using google with the keywords: hotmail 0x81000370

Second:

RedHat Linux (other than Enterprise editions) have all reached end of
life. For most of them (that's all except redhat 9), the SSL
certificates used by them have expired. up2date is not [to my knowledge]
an option for these any more.
