I don't look at my MSN/Hotmail email online, so haven't experienced any such
problems.

Look for a yellow banner at the top of the email, indicating a potential
problem.
If you have GreaseMonkey try deactivating it to see if your scripts need
updating.
Try viewing without CSS -- View, Page Style, No style
Are you seeing images. Are the scribbles you see descriptive information
for icons/pictures.
if so MenuX -- turn off Display tips for tools/images
Web Developer -- check through options for anything
checkmarked
although you would see them on all pages not just MSN.
