I use a number of different Google accounts and have a routine which automatically searches every night for certain things. My search results will vary depending on which one is logged in at the time of the search. -- Angus Scott-Fleming GeoApps, Tucson, Arizona 1-520-290-5038 Security Blog: http://geoapps.com/ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~

Not downforeveryoneorjustme - many people, including my site. No name resolution for MSN.

A network problem between downforeveryoneorjustme and MSN could mean DFEOJM can't reach MSN but you can. Additionally, most big online sites run multiple sites/clusters/etc. If the load balancer decides you're going to cluster XYZ and someone else goes to cluster JKL, and cluster XYZ is down but JKL is up, you can't get in but someone else can. I've also seen this cause more subtle differences. For example, at home, I sometimes get different Google search results vs at work.

Re: Epic Fail
MSN launched a new home page yesterday. Wonder if that could be causing some issues?

I hope your search histories are different at each place. ;-) Different Google cookies, so different search histories -- unless you log in to the same GMail or other Google account at both places, they'll have different histories. And even then, unless you run something like CustomizeGoogle in Firefox and anonymize your Google UID, they'll still be considered different computers. -- Angus Scott-Fleming GeoApps, Tucson, Arizona 1-520-290-5038 Security Blog: http://geoapps.com/ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~
