I think it's probably just some maintenance, or a hardware failure. I hope MSN keeps good backups.

<< The important question is will HansXP and others like him get their contacts back or are they forever gone? >>


After having lost all of mine more than once, they all just magically appeared just as they had been originally. I have seen one person, in my house, lose their contacts while another account in fine.
You have to remember they use multiple servers and while one or more may be hosed, the others are working fine.

<< face it MSN just hates you >>



Right...the server hosting my contacts and info became aware of itself and started to hate all the people logging on and off. Yeah, that's realistic.

MSN started working after 6 hours of the initial crap. Then it screwed up again. What's strange is that I created a new account, and it was working while the other wasn't. So when they stopped working again, I created yet another account. This time no luck. :( Now still none of them work at all. Bummer. Oh well, AIM, ICQ and Yahoo, mIRC, etc, will do just fine. :p

<< That's another reason to use ICQ ;) >>
