    is anyone else out there having problems getting to microsoft.com ???

    am able to get to their update site but extremely slow updating.

    its not my machine cause other clients tell me they are also having a problem.

    have run 3 different conficker scans and my machine is clean plus i can get to every security site out there with no problems except for microsoft.com

    your lucky then. my isp says nothing wrong with what they can see but being that myself and others who are hocked up to the same outside closet that centurytel uses my guess it is on their side but they wont admit it.

    only site we are unable to get to and all our machines are bug free including the conficker one. makes no sense.

    thanks.

    after again chatting with my isp later last night all of a sudden microsoft.com came back up just fine. really think my isp was blocking the domain name for some reason and they got more calls other than mine. they did that once before a couple years ago on this web site until i complained and they removed windowsbbs.com from a bad list domain. they had just installed some new canadian software and had lots of tweaking they forgot to do. all is good with the world now.

    thanks folks.

    On the other hand - MS's sites have been known to have problems too.
