Hotmail Disappeared

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

Went to hotmail this morning and just get the "Unknown Host" message. It's been down about 2 hours now.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Not yet, but some pretty weird stuff happened last week with Hotmail.

Same thing happened to me. I then re-typed "hotmail" into my address bar rather than using the bookmark or the "home" icon (as it is my hompepage) and that worked. From then on, both bookmark and icon worked.

Hotmail's been acting up here for over a month now. MSN Messenger, too. Don't know what's up, but it's pretty frustrating.

I have been able to get to the hotmail site for the last month, BUT, since they put in their 'secure server' option I have never been able to see any mail again, just a blank page has ever come up.

Guess I'll change to yahoo or bigfoot...

Why does everyone panic when something doesn't work on the internet? Nothing works right for long on PCs. There are always glitches.

Just went to hotmail before coming here or should I say I tried to go there. It is almost 1030 and it's the first time i have tried today. Not sure what is wrong but I doubt it would have anything to do with Y2K this early.
