"Struggling WorldCom Inc., one of the major backbone providers of networks
that route traffic over the Internet, suffered a major commercial Internet
outage beginning at 8 a.m. EDT on Thursday, according to a company that
monitors Internet performance."

Article goes on to state the reason was a "software glitch".

FWIW,
