open mail function for hotmail goes to a fake hotmail site

[Auke Zaagman]

Dear Reader,

I just used the open mail function from within Pidgin and I ended up at a website looking like this, which is the old hotmail layout:



NoScript stopped this Javascript:

<iframe src="https://secure.footprint.net/xscmsn/c/hotmail/S/1033/header.html?cbpage=fslogin&mkt=EN-US&lc=1033&x=11.0.18474.0" width="100%" height="112" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" align="top" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" name="i6000"></iframe>
Link in URL bar:

Am I being paranoid?
