Have him trying to ping hotmail.com and see what repsonse he gets. Also run a tracert to those email addresses and see where it times out.
Open a command prompt and type tracert hotmail.com

Let me know if you have any problems.

It is possible though that the lines of his ISP are down to those sites.

Dont flame - it has happend here at work where we cant reach a site but the site can be reached by someone 2 blocks away.
What the heck did I miss? This email seems to refer to stuff I can't find in prev posts.
