Windows Live ID services down?

[Apple-a-Day]

The hotmail, MSN, Live servers are not all in one place they are server clusters based out of several locations.

If part of the cluster fails or has issues it can give log on issues such as we are experiancing

PS yes MS knows there are issues the call volumes increased hugely near 5:00 pm EST

Glad Im not at work now

Feet up reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelax off for two days

i use gmail but my messenger was down

[Roger H. Veteran]

i couldn't get Windows Live Messenger to work but it is now, didnt check xbox or anything yet.

I tired a different live logon (one that I created only last week) and it's working fine. Obviously some of the servers are down...last time this happened only certain servers were offline which affected only a handful of user accounts.

EDIT: I just logged in with my normal account :)

[gamerboy]

i am still unable to log into my msn messenger. anyone do anything special to fix it?

[i2750]

I thought that it was all fixed now. Anyway, that is not a very nice think to have happen to you. I do really hope that Microsoft doesn't let this happen again, unless if it is for an emergency.

So, can anyone know why this happening?

[SiberianTiger]

Is it still down for anyone? I get error code 80048826 and nothing has been working for the past week.

[peacemf]

Error 80072745 is what i get :) either way its not working for me (since a few hours ago)
