Can't share information - temporary problem with service

Hi,

I'm trying to use your Live Data Code sample, but am getting:

Can't share information

Sorry, your Windows Live information can't be shared bedause of a temporary problem with the service. Please try again later

Just wanted to see if this is a general error that affects everyone atm or if there's something else to it.

If it's a general error, any idea how long it'll be out for?

Ok..my bad. The problem here was i was running from local host.

After adding a entry in my hosts file and using that to run the code from it was happy again.

It does not accept host names that only have one component (e.g. localhost, foo). It also does not accept IP addresses. So a domain name that has more than one component (e.g. foo.com) would work provided you hook up the domain name to your IP address in your hosts file. The hosts file resides in the system32\drivers\etc folder.
