Hello Everybody!

Yesterday I pass MS Exam and today I recive 2 e-mail from mswwprog@microsoft.com with my MC ID and temporary access code.

Next, I`m giong to https://mcp.microsoft.com/ and see the list of folder instead of webpage. OK, I`m click mcp folder and going to https://mcp.microsoft.com/Mcp/ (if luck - it can be unavailable)

Here I fill two box (MC ID and access code) click Next and get error page:

Server Error in '/Authenticate' Application. Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached.

Sometimes I get other error (try but can`t get it right now)

How can I associate my Microsoft Certification ID (MC ID) with my Windows Live ID?

Thanks!

There appears to be a problem with the MCP site at the moment.
