In late September, Microsoft began rolling out a new Windows Live Hotmail, drawing a fierce reaction among many users of the e-mail service.
Hotmail users complained about specific bugs in the new Hotmail. They also said the changes were largely unnecessary. Microsoft, for instance, combined two previous versions of Hotmail -- a lightweight version, known as "classic," and one better for faster Internet connections, known as "full."
On Thursday, via the Windows Live team blog, Microsoft announced it had rolled back some of the changes, including a new scrolling feature that had been especially irksome to some Hotmail users.
