ISS is so great. Not

Seems the governments of the world put their faith in ISS and MS for their websites. Oh dear.

CBS) Microsoft's Web sites — including the corporate site Microsoft.com, Hotmail, the Microsoft Network and the MSNBC.com — are out of service Wednesday, the result of server problems.

"The Internet's Domain Name System (DNS) does not return the correct response when it is queried for a Microsoft Web site," Ruud de Jonge, support manager at Microsoft Benelux, told The Standard. "It will take some time; this can't be restored by hitting one switch."

A Microsoft spokeswoman in London told FTMarketWatch.com that Microsoft couldn't immediately say when the Web sites would be brought back into service...

... While there was speculation that the outages were the result of hackers' denial-of-service attacks, it's more likely a network error or system failure, said experts.
