You just chose the bad day. I'm disconnected since ~6 hours. Basically the
main server (messenger.hotmail.com) is randomly up or down, then the other
server we get redirected on (load balancing I think) cuts the connection
down.
Ethereal shows this
me>server:	SYN
server>me:	SYN/ACK
me>server:	ACK
server>me:	RST

Now let's hope they didn't implement TCP stack tweaks to detect linux
clients ;-)
