    joshwa that happens when the server is too busy when i open it through msn (it opens in ie) it does that too. So no probs.

    i aint sure.. I get this issue with firer0x on my windows machine.. It takes minutes to login - i would rather wait than suffer the shame of using IE. Infact.. looking at my IE history shows my one interaction with it was to www.mozilla.org

    However, the binary edition on my gentoo laptop works fine. I guess they don't try their tricks on us filthy linux users cause we are too far down the righteous path to free operating systems.

    Note to daymonkey.. the extended login times happen at all times of the day, i doubt it is a net traffic thing. It is a net traffic thing when you get forwarded to the great hotmail.com/tooBusy.html page ! Always good that one... Because the web server is busy.. but not too busy to forward you to tooBusy !
