Microsoft's eOpen site - down?

[SpaceHonkey]

I've been trying for several days now to get into the site - but it appears to be down. Anyone else having any luck?

It's a real pain in the @#$ - it always seems to be down when I need it!

I get

eopen.microsoft.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown.

(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)

Maybe they just updated their SSL Certificates 'cause I can access https://eopen.microsoft.com/EN/default.asp now.

I can't even ping it -

ping eopen.microsoft.com
Pinging eopen.one.microsoft.com [131.107.115.156] with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.

Couldn't ping it from here either -

Ok - I found a way in. I had to open the Google cached eOpen page, and clicked sign-in. Logged in, and it works.

However, I still can't ping it - and if I use another browser, I get the certificate error.

I can't ping the website either, but that doesn't necessarily mean it would be down though. I mean, try pinging www.hotmail.com and see that you can't either. I think MSN just shuts down ICMP from the outside..

Were you able to ping it before?

Either way, the site is up, and I'm using Firefox 3.0.8 and Internet Explorer 8 -- both opened the websites for me.
