What kind of problem are you facing when you try it for hotmail or AOL? Do you get some kind of error?

It's not a bug, it's a feature! Check out my CodeProject article Permission-by-aspect. Me in Softwareland.

string strNextUrlTemp = webResMailLiveComASPX.Headers[Utility.Location].ToString(); it is giving null

Okay, and what is Utility.Location (the string)? Is it important, or can you just ignore it for AOL and Hotmail? Maybe these both don't provide the value?

So I would check what you are getting back after login. I suggest using a tcpmonitor to capture everything that will run through the wire while you login at AOL or Hotmail. Maybe it is another property you have to look for. You can find a good tcp monitor here: https://tcpmon.dev.java.net/[^]
