MSNBC SharePoint Web Parts to be Discontinued Jan 25th
If you have SharePoint installations that are using web parts from the MSNBC online gallery, be aware that they are being yanked by MSNBC and that you will end up with broken links!
See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929197:
On January 25, 2007, the following MSNBC Web Parts will no longer be offered through the online Web Part gallery for Windows SharePoint Services:
| • | MSNBC Business News |
| • | MSNBC Entertainment News |
| • | MSNBC News |
| • | MSNBC Sports News |
| • | MSNBC Stock News |

On February 6, 2007, these Web Parts will be discontinued, and they will not display data. Beginning on that day, the Web Parts will link to this article. At the end of February, the Web Parts will return an error that resembles the following:
Cannot display information. This Web Part requires a connection to the Internet and Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later running on a Windows operating system. Customers are advised to remove these web parts as soon as it is convenient to do so.
