any ideas???

207.046.000.000 - 207.046.255.255 Deny Microsoft Corp, Microsoft Asian Data Centers

This is the range that is blocking your MSN. You could try and add this range to your exclusions. You can search the list or sort it by sources and look for the range you want. It should be green and the source column should say exclusions.

Note that if there are exclusions (permit rules) in the BLM listview, that the blocked ranges will be split to make a 'hole' in the range.

The actual exclusion does not get into the IP filter that is read by ProtoWall. PW only loads blocked ranges.

I hope that makes sense.
