MSN WiFi Hotspots, previously "Windows Live WiFi Hotspot Locator", is a website which helps users to locate wireless Internet hotspots worldwide and view their positions on a map using Live Search Maps.

This service has been discontinued as of June 10, 2008.

Windows Live WiFi Center

Windows Live WiFi Center was part of Microsoft's Windows Live services that helped users to find and connect to wireless networks around the world. It allowed users to search for wireless networks that are available and displayed information about them such as security configuration and signal strength. In addition, users could also add wireless networks as favorites, track connection history, and manage network preferences. It used VPN technology to secure a wireless Internet connection on unsecured networks

The service allowed users to search for free and fee-based wireless networks, showing information such as address, description, available amenities, service providers and location using Live Search Maps.

Windows Live Wifi Center has since been discontinued after the rebranding of Windows Live WiFi Hotspot Locator to MSN WiFi Hotspots.

Requirements

Windows Live WiFi Center requires the following softwares to be installed prior to installation:
*Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
*Microsoft Core XML Services (MSXML) 6.0
*Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2)
