Comcast email is OUT

If anyone knows any computer journalists--I think it may be a system wide outage, because when I called the 1 800 number they had a recording saying their engineers were working on it.

Not sure how long it has been, probably a few hours, but I only woke up a couple of hours ago.

Ugh!

They just set up some stupid "security" procedure by which they email us a temporary pass code
so we can use online banking. So much for that system.

I guess too many people took them up on their Business Comcast offer: $150 if you don't think the sales pitch is worth the 20 minutes of your time!

No telling what they did to it to barely make it work (I had to refresh twice), but in any case doesn't work on Windows Live Mail. But unlike before, am able to get it on iPhone (???).
