I knew it was too good to be true. After hunting through TV listing sites the other night and settling on msn.ca I have found that both last night and today they don't work for me anymore. I get a Firefox error message that the connection to the server was reset when I try to load the page. Maybe too many Yahoo refugees climbed on the ship and Sympatico decided that they wanted to keep their listings for their own customers. No matter, the TV listing on canoe.ca are at least as good if not better. Canoe's listings which are powered by zap2it.com show which shows are repeats, something that I couldn't find on msn.ca. It takes a bit of fiddling around to get the Canoe listings to appear they way you want them but it's worth the effort. To get more than 20 channels showing on the page all you have to do is customize your channel lineup.
Yahoo 360 has finally included a spell checker in their latest update. I'm just glad that the same team that did the TV listings didn't work on 360.
