On http://preview.nuget.org/account/Register, the first couple of times I tried to register, I got the "The username '{0}' is not available." error message, even though I know the username should have been available. This message came up after about 60 seconds, so it seemed like a command timeout.

But then after trying again, I got the brown screen of death from corpnet. (Network Access Message)

Technical Information (for support personnel)
