I'm seeing about 50% packet loss to all 4 microsoft.com nameservers. I
can't get any dns responses from them.
As, I think, Greg Woods mentioned, it's a pretting weak setup putting all
of your nameservers on what appears to be the same network.
I am amazed that this has taken so long to fix.
Here is one news article on it several hours ago:
