It works for me. I just used it and it was working perfectly.
Make sure, when signing in, that you have the password exact.
If you are not sure, then ask it for your password retreivial
I've been trying to log in to my Hotmail account since yesterday but each time i try to log in with my address and password, the error msg shows
"Service Unavailable - DNS failure
The server is temporarily unable to service your request. Please try again later."
I am currently using IE 6 and i tried logging in through Opera but still encounter the same msg. I even asked my friend to log in for me in her own computer but she couldn't.
However, my sister's hotmail account seems to work perfectly normal.
I'm on Win 98 with a cable connection. Is there a possibility that my email address has been hijacked or is just Hotmail down?
Please someone help!
