hi
it's microsoft. again!
i have been using this interface since 2004 and have never had any problems
but since november~ of last year, all of a sudden there just seems to be one
problem after another. i tried switching to google groups but it's screwed up
to. shows the replies to posts but not the original post. great. you have the
solution but don't know what the probem was.
i have contacted microsoft about this throught this site..
https://support.microsoft.com/contac...;1208&ws=mscom
no reply yet. maybe that is screwed up too. maybe you may want to try it and
lodge a complaint.
and microsoft is on TV advertising how they can solve the worlds problems
but can't seem to fix their own web interface.

sigh.

I'm accessing these groups thru the MS web interface at:

...and as I'm trying to navigate the web pages to previous discussions, I'm
getting a whole lot of "Service Temporarily Unavailable" web page errors.

Is this a problem with firewall-type iissues, or is there something up with
MS's web interface? I never used to get these (and come to think on it a bit
more, I think I've been getting these errors from home too, so that should
rule out any local corporate firewall issues.)
