Is anyone else unable to log into MSN today. It keeps telling me I'm either not connected to the net or the service is down.

Same thing here.
Also, a few months ago it deleted half my contacts and wouldn't show them even after I re-added them. Eventually sorted it out somehow.

Most of it's working for me, though I'm hitting it from inside microsoft. Looks like the passport servers are screwy today. I'll see if I can't find out anything

Dunno, that's over at the data center about 10 miles away from the main campus. Sometimes it's new software, sometimes it's new hardware, alot of times it's a new code drop. Always a pretty tricky process, since you have to hook into so much(Passport, Wolfpack clusters, Content Replication Systems, Content Publishing Systems, Web services, etc, etc, etc) for any external microsoft website. And of course MSN is the trickiest.

it is a hassle
i think they should have a backup server with everything on it that msn needs to work, so msn can work through that server, until the original one is updated, and move it all back to the original server, then they can upgrade the backup one
