Windows Live Messenger / MSN Down
Sep 11th 2008
Numerous users are reporting that the Windows Live Messenger server is currently down, and not accepting any authentication requests. For those who are already signed in, you can remain using the service as required.
Users also reported earlier issues today, including messenger logging in and out, and users randomly appearing offline.
At this stage the Windows Live Server page is saying all servers are fine, like usual - however, this is highly doubtable. No news from Microsoft just yet, however we will let you know as soon as the service is back up.

The issue seems to have resolved itself. No word from Microsoft as yet.

Windows Live Messenger won’t allow installation to take place because the microsoft server is down, or something.
I normally wouldn’t mind, but windows messenger - that thing that came with every /other/ copy of windows - is incompatible with Vista!
Vista is shit!
I wish it didn’t come with this new computer.
I am installing XP now.
