Friday at work, I was unable to log onto Windows Messenger and I got the
following error:

Signing in to .NET Messenger Service failed because the service is temporary
unavailable.

Well, I go home and I get the same error message. According to Microsoft
the service is up and running. I tried to log in my girlfriend and she has
no problem at all. I went to hotmail.com to make sure my passport was still
working. When I signed it, I had to reactivate my account for some reason.
After activating it, I tried to log on again and I still get the same error:

Signing in to .NET Messenger Service failed because the service is temporary
unavailable.

Any suggestions?
