Well, no, it won't "remain the same" -- it will eventually end up being spaces.live.com, and they will migrate the addresses when they're ready. Right now I think they just did some pre-emptory address changes to the typical spaces.msn.com URL for your blog, I think its now (USERNAME).spaces.msn.com -- and so, it would follow that in a logical sense, Live Spaces would mean the following blog URL formats: (USERNAME).spaces.live.com

You need to read what i wote. I said it should remain the same. but with the name change. reason why i didnt put that is becuase we know msn spaces will change to live spaces so no need to tell people what they already know

I did read what you wrote. All I did was state that in a technical sense, no it won't "remain the same", not the naming conventions and what not for older spaces.

I'm not here to assume what it is you meant, as apparently, when I do that about your apparently innate inability to spell, you like to bitch about that too. :|

Since I have a hotmail account associated with my MSN Space, I can't really move it over to my new Live account. I contacted MSN space:

Dear xxxxxx,

Thank you for writing to MSN Spaces Technical Support.

This is xxxxx and I understand that you want to associate your existing Space site with your new Microsoft Passport Network account. I understand how important resolving this issue is for you.

I am sorry to tell you that the said feature is not currently possible. You may delete your current Space and create a new one using your new account.

You can delete an MSN Space provided you are recognized as its owner and you are signed in using the same Microsoft Passport Network account you used in creating it. I have included for you below the steps on how to delete a Space.

1. Make sure that you have signed into your space and are in "edit mode".

2. Click the "Settings" tab.

3. Click "Space Settings".

4.Scroll down to the Delete your space section, and then click "Delete my space".

5. Click "OK".

In deleting a Space you have to consider the following:

- You cannot retrieve the space or any of the content, including photos that you had on your space.

- You cannot create a new space using the same URL for 60 days. If you want to keep your URL, edit your existing space rather than creating a new one.

You are a valuable customer to MSN and we are glad to give you consistent and effective service.

Thank you for using MSN Spaces.

Regards,

xxxxx

Okay, I know how to delete the thing. I would if I could get the username back.

well that sucks! this is probably the only thing keeping me away from getting a totally new email address. I got too many random people on my contact list so I probably would like to have a revamped contact list.

Those who are getting server errors from the live-int websites should change their language settings in IE to "en-us". And how do you get http://get.live.com/spaces/overview working? All I see is a blank page with the "flair" background. http://get.live-int.com/spaces/overview works but...

      Vivaldi ftw, as an old Opera user I've been using it everywhere since the very first preview. My only wish is I could use it at work, but alas, no luck so far. The only allowed options are Chrome or Edge, and while I hate Chrome with a passion and I would much rather use Edge than Chrome, the company policy limits Edge customizations a lot more than it limits Chrome for some reason, and some of those are things I just can't live without, so I have to suffer with Chrome where even tab switching is a pain...

      Tor Browser 15.0.15 by Razvan Serea Protect your privacy. Defend yourself against network surveillance and traffic analysis. Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. The Tor software protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody from watching your Internet connection and learning what sites you visit, it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location, and it lets you access sites which are blocked. The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained. Tor Browser 15.0.15 changelog: All Platforms Updated NoScript to 13.6.20.1984 Updated Tor to 0.4.9.9 Bug tor-browser#42436: Allow for multiple configured (front, reflector) domain fronting pairs in Moat module Windows + macOS + Linux Bug tor-browser#44997: Captcha doesn't work in TB desktop Linux Bug tor-browser#44886: Backport tor-browser#44361: Notify Linux i686 users that they won't receive updates anymore Download: Tor Browser (64-bit) | Tor Browser (32-bit) | 109.0 MB (Open Source) View: Tor Browser Website | Other Operating Systems Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

      Less disk space means less bandwidth demands which means lower operating costs for service providers... that's where money talks. ... cuz it's not about improving video quality!... that's just marketing spin.
