Well, read what the message says, you message is too short.

I think you have to have at least 7 characters (I think that's the vB default).

Whatever is inside the quote doesn't count toward the minimum character limit, Dave.

It seems that after the .NET Messenger Service maintenance(s) this weekend we have a single re-entry in the Holy List of Forbidden Nicknames!

It's been since May 2003 that a word got blocked from display names, but when you try to put .NET Messenger Service in your nickname today you will get a message that "The display name you chose was invalid. Please choose another display name or try again."

If you play with capitals and lower case (eg. .net messenger service), you will see that variations are allowed though! This only adds up to the mystery around nickname filtering being re-implemented again for a single chain of words. If you discover any other (if any, probably MSN related) forbidden nicknames, let us know.

Smart-asses trying to work around this nickname filter will notice that their display name returns to its original state after signing out & in again, unless you use the blank nickname character (hold ALT and type 0160) as a space between the words (tip from Huuf).

All systems go

Microsoft acknowledged on Monday that it continued to battle a technical glitch that prevented MSN users from logging on to the service's instant messaging system for the past three days.

A representative of Microsoft said the company had fixed the issues that had prevented its users from logging on to MSN Messenger. "The system is now back up and running. We believe that the problem is now fixed."

The spokesperson would not give further details about the problem, except to say that the Monday morning outage was due to "administrative maintenance.".

Wheew...thank God.
