MSN, Hotmail where did it go

is anyone else finding out that msn.com and hotmail.com arnt online, neather is xtramsn.co.nz, nothing to do with MSN is working, messenger says that there is a problem with the system. but if you type in www.hotmail.com or www.msn.com all im getting is this page does not exist, its been like this for over 12 hours
Has anyone else had any problems??

Nope, I got to hotmail just fine.

MSN.com too.

Check your DNS or ISP.

My ISP is MSN and it's working fine.

Try running hijackthis on your computer...

Or check out you hosts file.

/system32/drivers/etc/ (in windows xp)...

They are most certainly there...

its a AOL problem or something, just use a HTTP Proxy and it will be fine, we had the problem all day in England

no problems here, but I had a friend who couldn't get online since this noon (first time he tried today). Lives 10 km from my house.

Here is some information on the problem:

www.cnn.com...

hmmm that would explain why its been happin. I got on msn now by usin HTTP Proxy

I can't get online half the time anyway- my internet provider comkcast sucks.

yeh uve had that all today i live in manchester england and all i got was something about my firewall as well as everyone else on aol i talked to its mucked up and i dunno what ot do lol
