It seems to have been down for over a day.

Weird,

I wonder if they have a different server for the NYC area?

I can get into my account, but my SO can’t get into his. He has the “upgraded” version of Hotmail, I have the basic, free version. I wonder if that’s the difference?

This is a bit late, but I couldn’t access hotmail today either. The message said that the server with my account information was down. Works fine now.
