Broken Passport login

FYI for any Microsoft folks reading this newsgroup. It appears that access
to the web viewer with Live or Passport (or whatever it is these days) is
broken.

When I click the sign in button, I get the Live login page but when I login,
the web ng viewer still says login and if I try to create a new thread, the
page posts back but no new window opens (and no, there's no message bar at
the top).

If I click sign in again, it does not even go to the Live sign in page.

You need to clear IE's temp files and cookies....

There is something wrong with the browser interface at the Vista website.
The interface still works fine at this site:

I have been having the same problem. I cleared the cookies temp files etc
etc and it still does it. So, I just go through Windows Mail now to post on
here.

Nice thank you for posting that Conley. I was using the newsgroups in
windows mail but I like going through the website better.

That didn't help. I am still using Windows Mail.
