Also now dead - I just get a blank page apart from the header and footer.

I got the same at first, seems some script removes it though. I see the content flashing by, i saved the content using wget and got the original page.

If you disable JavaScript you can see the content, it seems like there's some script that replaces it on page load.

wat? why? they have some sort of 'message will self-destruct javascript' in their page which is carried into the wayback machine?

I still can access it just fine: https://web.archive.org/web/20170327154501/https://support.m...

(I have javascript disabled anyway)

However the article is:

Article ID: 307010 - Last Review: Nov 15, 2012 - Revision: 1
Applies to Microsoft Visual C# 2005, Microsoft Visual C# .NET 2003 Standard Edition, Microsoft Visual C# .NET 2002 Standard Edition

So it seems like a bit out of date anyway, having been originally devised for 2002-2005 products.
