Site still indexed but not showing up in search results?

Question
-
My site www.galwayacupuncture.ie was indexed a few months ago and was #1 search return for various keywords for months but now is not showing up at all (keywords acupuncture galway). Even if I search my name, Juliana Driscoll, my site doesn't show up, only links to it as in this example http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=juliana+driscoll+&FORM=MSNH11
A url search shows it is still indexed http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=url%3Awww.galwayacupuncture.ie&go=&form=QBRE
The Webmaster central says it was last crawled 11/08
Any thing I can do?

Hi Juliana,
I am not sure what you are seeing. I see galwayacupuncture.ie as #1 for each of those results. Email me at lswmc@microsoft.com and I will send you screen caps. If you have screen caps showing something different, please send them to me.
Thanks,
Brett

Hi Juliana,
I looked at the results for your name that you provided above and your site was #1. What other keywords are you targeting?

Brett,
thanks for your reply, but I'm unsure what you mean; in the link I posted, my site does not appear at all, only sites linking to me or mentioning my site. Before this, my actual site www.galwayacupuncture.ie would come up #1. Now it is nowhere to be found, except when checking the indexing of it. Re. keywords, any combination of galway acupuncture juliana driscoll, would previously find my site, but now only other sites mentioning me http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=juliana+driscoll+&FORM=MSNH11 and http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=juliana+driscoll+acupuncture+galway&go=&form=QBRE. This search by google is what Live search was like up until a while ago for same keywords: http://www.google.ie/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENIE292&q=juliana+driscoll+acupuncture+galway&btnG=Google+Search&meta=lr%3D
Hope you can be of help,

The only thing you can do is sit and wait like the rest of us who's sites are not being indexed by msn. There is a notice in live search regarding msn not accepting some sites for indexing. The only part of some sites that are indexed is the root directory and thats it for now. Later msn may decided that your site is one of the ones that it will index the content of your site
Good Luck

1twothree,
Thanks but if you read my post and its title, that's not my problem. My site is indexed, and has been since a couple of weeks after its first launch, but was recently not turning up in search results. It turns out that it does turn up as #1 search return for chosen keywords when searching in the US, but not in Ireland; so it's a SE glitch that hopefully can be remeided soon. Don't know why you're having difficulties, MSN crawled and indexed my quickly.

Brett,
that problem seems resolved now, my site's returned to search results. Thanks,
