You got them to admit they had a congestion issue?  Wow.  Did you use truth
serum or a cattle prod?  8-)

We have been having problems reaching hotmail and ebay for weeks now..
Our customers called them, and they said it was within our network because
they couldn't see us (traceroute clearly showed congestion on their side
though).  We finally did get some info out of them:

Exodus net admitted that they have a bandwidth problem to MCI, and their
border routers are severely congested.  They are currently in the process 
of increasing their bandwidth with C&W.  Their estimate (in their own
words) is approximately 40 days until the circuits are upgraded.

So, it will be quite a while before this will be remedied apparently.
