Pissed Where's my Hotmail? MS issues.

Alright... most bizarre...

This is the second time it has occurred. If I try to get to Hotmail - through ANY means - Messanger, typing Hotmail.com, clicking a link from any MSN page, or even just trying to Sign In to Passport from any MSN page. It was working just fine when I got home from work today. Then suddenly I go to check my mail and BAM, I get:

The page cannot be displayed
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings.. yada yada yada..

This happens no matter how I try to get to my hotmail. I have my Outlook Express setup, and that cannot even log in. I have rebooted, cleaned up everything from temp files to my registry, checked the Hosts file, and even upgraded stupid IE. Any ideas on this one? Thanks..

I only use my hotmail account for throw away mail. If it is mission critical you need to use a real E-mail account.
