MSN working for anyone ?

I can't connect to MSN messenger, or open any Microsoft websites.
www.msn.com , www.microsoft.com - none of them working, anyone else got the same problem ?

All working for me. I'm on UKOnline but using OpenDNS. You're not the only one having problems though:

Works fine here, Sky Broadband.

It's a problem with either you or your ISP. Try pinging 207.68.172.246 (MSN) and changing your DNS settings to OpenDNS
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

Thanks guys, seems to an entanet problem.

Tried changing DNS servers but no difference.

I can ping that IP direct fine though...

If you can ping 207.68.172.246 fine but can access www.msn.com then it's either a DNS issue or a problem with HTTP traffic (filters etc).
