social.MSDN what is up?? "You are not authorized to perform this action."

Question
-
For the past several days it seems that many links in the social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums are all broken. It is not limited to any particular forum.
The only change in my system is the addition of and its associated login application. MicrosoftOnline.com I disabled it and rebooted but the problem remains.
Thank,

Okay, assuming that Oyle is now speaking for you (since you haven't responded), the answer is that those threads were deleted by various reasons that are known only by the forum Owners/Moderators.
In order to determine anything else, we'll need a link to the forum they live in. Then we can hunt down the Moderators. Then we can find out what happened. It's a lot of work, it will take a long, time, and it will require patience.
Otherwise, the answer is that the Moderators delete threads when they break the terms of use.

I seem to run into this all the time.

The conspiracy theorist in me seems to think these are the questions about what Azure doesn't support (GDI) :)
