I can't even get to MSN. MSN has been acting up for a couple days now.

After a while MSN will eventually load. Howmail refuses to load, though, after clicking Sign In. I don't use my Hotmail address for anything, though. I've got Yahoo for my main address. Never really had any problems with Yahoo.

We better stop joking about Pakistan before they decide to ban Subsim. Truer than you may think. This is a serious matter.
Once the root name servers become tainted, it can take a long time for the corrections to propagate out to individual downstream routers. The 13 root name servers on the 'net are authoritative for name to IP address translation. Depending on the TTL (time to live) values set up on a router, the tainted information can linger for hours or days. This causes "non-connect" events to happen because a person's computer is normally set to query the ISP nameservers in the network they connect to...

Want to wreak havoc on the Internet? Just hijack a bunch of IPs and flood the name servers. It won't "kill" the 'net, but the ensuing confusion will "not be pretty".

Personally, I think YouTube should take the Pakistan action, accident or not, into the World Court and set precedent for damages, liabilities and actions in the event it happens again.

It has been intermittent since about 1300z.I did get in but I am back out again at the moment 1608z.It lets you into the sign-in screen and then goes for a siesta.
Back in at 1619z

They better not, I pay Musharrif a pretty penny in protection money to leave us alone.
