can you get the page tho? Because when I use command line I get something that looks like a akamai load-balancing www.ms.akadns.net
and yeah, the ping dies somewhere around atlanta. Which would seem to be the wrong direction, but there you are. Let's remember that this site is ping from where *it* is. so I guess my question is, what problem are you trying to solve? Do you need something from the microsoft site?
