Microsoft seems to be resolving (pun) its domain name problems. Several names appear to be working again, at least intermittently. As best I can tell, the problem begain about 6:30pm last night. Although it probablly didn't start to effect a significant number of people for a few hours depending on how long the cache timeouts lasted. I still haven't heard back from msnnoc@microsoft.com (no phone number listed on puck.nether.net).
