Bad web site design. Hotmail went way downhill when Microsoft bought them out.

Hotmail works fine on Safari for me - try accessing it from inside Microsoft Messenger.

I just (this week!) got my iMac w/ Leopard & Safari and was unable to log in to Hotmail; MS Messenger was impossible as well.

Then I found the solution online:
Open Safari
Click on "Safari"
Click on "Preferences"
Click on "Security"
Click on "Show Cookies"

Look in the list for anything ending in .live.com and delete them all.

Viola!

HTH,
Kate
