neos Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Same here! I haven't been able to get in for the last 5 hours about either. Why does this happen so much?! I dont use ICQ, or AIM. Does this happen with those IM programs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted April 16, 2002 Author Share Posted April 16, 2002 Aol tends to be worse, but AOL's downtimes are more often, but are normally only for a few minutes, but when MSN goes down, it goes down for longish periods. But since we had that downtime for about a week many many months ago, MSN/Windows Messenger has not been the same, seems like the people at MS have lost the plot after that, I frequentley get the busy message. You would think the richest company in the world would be able to invest in enough server power to run the service with servers to spare, but obviously not, I got disconnected earlier, and haven't been able to sign in since Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
