After a day of problems yesterday, Microsoft says its Windows Live log-in issues are now resolved.
Although a large number of Windows Live servers are running on Microsoft's Windows Server 2008, which is due to be launched today, a representative said the problem is not a glitch with the new operating system.
Windows Live product manager, Samantha McManus, said in a statement: "We can say with certainty that Windows Server did not contribute to this incident."
Microsoft was far less detailed when it comes to what the problem actually was.
McManus said: "This issue appears to have been related to an unexpected event which caused device overload and failure."
