Is anyone else's Hotmail or MSN playing up?

For the last few days, I am having trouble getting Hotmail. I tried sending an email to myself and it didn't go through. I also can't get into MSN. I just keep getting the sign in screen but nothing happens. I tried rebooting and I tried reinstalling it, I have Windows Live Messenger version 8.0.

Me too!!! But being that I use a computer (for bird forums) and laptop (for e-mail) it's only on the computer I'm having issues... with both slow e-mail and unable to use the windows live messenger (updated version)..... laptop I have no issues! But needless to say, both computers hate me!!!

2 Thursdays ago my son was on his MSN talking to friends in the evening & then this post, 'Is this your photo?' came up from a friend's message. He clicked on it & that was the end of our computer. This message jumped to all his friends & back again. We had firewalls & stuff but not enough. 64 trojans later & 3 so inbeded we had to get our system cleansed.

I always forget to use my Hotmail to check on a few friends so no I don't know is it's slow but after what we just saw they must be having troubles too.

The only good thing I can say about the down time was I was a lot freer & now we have it back it is working better as we upgraded in a few areas including protection.

This is horrible. I don't use live messenger but it's a good warning. Tiki, I've been on and off my hotmail all day yesterday and all day today with no problems.

Still down here. Maybe its MSN 8.0 version that is causing the problem? Anyway I have to leave for work soon so will mess with it on the weekend.

MSN 8.0 stinks! None of the emoticons work for me. I've tried reinstalling it and it still stinks on ice.

OK Hotmail is working again, just tested it. If MSN 8 isn't working by tomorrow, I'm gonna uninstall it and go back to 7.5.
