First I apologise using this ng for this message, but this is most
familiar programming ng to me. And this is relevant to programming.

I read that there was a problem with MS and or MSDN, but that it was
fixed. Anyway all msdn links now require login. Its a pity, if it
stays that way.

I can still browse the library when "signed out".
I was logged in before, and it still knows who I am if that makes any
difference.

Yes. I could log in, if I wanted to. It looks like I have a valid live
id.

And now when I checked, with IE I can browse msdn, but with Firefox
same address causes login screen to show. Interesting.
