Anyone aware of an attack on www.microsoft.com? I had a customer
machine that was attacking it, looks like either a bug in Microsoft's
SP4 (coincidentally this started the day after this was installed) or
there's some new(?) worm of some sort causing this ??
Thanks!
Yeah, seeing the same here - it's been flaky for us for the last 30
minutes while we've been trying it.
I wonder if it's related to this messages.zip / admin@ thing that's all
over the place today.
I was just thinking the other day, wouldn't it be funny if there was a
worm that had infected machines attack windowsupdate.microsoft.com so you
couldn't patch? 
I haven't confirmed that this is the problem, but it
seems likely.

I wouldn't put it past Microsoft to make a patch so poorly written, it would
actually cause all patched machines to attack the mothership.
