No message but VERY slow. I guess the early issue was why I could not check in from my phone.

Do you know what you were doing when you got the error message?

I not getting that error message, but I notice the daily statistics information is not available.

And today, I updated Firefox beta version 13 with Answers.com add on program, and the PBase upload program hangs with server time out messages.

PBase upload program will work with Firefox 13 Answers.com disabled as with previous Firefox versions.

I have read about others having issues with the Answers.com plug in. I think it was purchased (Google?). Do you still use it? I would remove it.

Once again a bad day on PBase. Slow, error messages, waiting for..., forum slow.
Happens monthly, at least once.

To DesignGuy:

Yes, I've used Answers.com on a number of different OS/Browser platforms for many years and have found it very convenient and useful. I'm not about to give it up until I find something better. Still not sure exactly who owns it, but http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Answers.com provides some information. Google appears to be incorporating many of its features on several OS/Browser platforms.

[quote="hjsteed"]Do you know what you were doing when you got the error message?

I was clicking on thumbnails to see larger images.

Yes, that just happened to me. When I double clicked the thumbnail a second time, I got the large image.
Looks to me like a PBase server overload problem.

I have yet to the last couple get the "Error 503 Service Unavailable, but it does happen to me from time to time.
95% of the time it is cleared up and connects when I refresh.

It does seem the many of the changes to Browsers is forcing some websites to adjust data base response.
Google just had some major adjustments to the privacy policy, this helps improve their product, but maybe causing conflicts?
I noticed some changes to indexing some of my websites in the end search results.
