    Just had a message saying the page could not be found - but when I clicked on "Alerts" I could get in by clicking the name of one of the posts!

    Have just had the "timed out" box 5 times while entering a reply on another thread. None here so far, so here goes. . . .

    I've just had the dreaded "timed out" whilst replying to another thread, but got rid of it without any bother.

    I've had that one a couple of times, too. Didn't really think anything of it as I've also had it with other sites. Usually clicking on "Try Again" gets me in.

    I had a problem of a similar nature with Free Reg yesterday (Thursday) at 3.00 pm NSW time, the message was: "We encountered a problem completing your request. Please resubmit. If this situation continues please let us know through the Contact Us link at the foot of this page"

    I did contact Free Reg as suggested but the problem only lasted a short while.

    Just had the database error. :oops: 8:55 P.M U.S. central daylight time. Refresh didn't fix it, but re-clicking my bookmark did the trick.

    Another update:

    After I sent through some errors that may help the host in diagnosing the problem, they mentioned they have adjusted some things. Can you please let me know from this point if any more come through.

    It will be interesting to see if their adjustments have had any benefit.

    Same here. Even if it means that they happen to a lesser extent, that is a positive thing...

    I hadn't had problems for a few days, until last night when I couldn't post, it kept coming up with the red & black box. Eventually managed to post at try number 5. Nothing today though. Have not had trouble getting in to the site for quite a while now.
