Getting in here is often difficult, however, at 10pm PDT I shouldn't be crowded out. This was the message: SessSQL: Host '208.138.126.7' is blocked because of many connection errors. Unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts' An electronic version of 'Drain-O'?... or is 'Vanish' a more apt product comparison? CompuServe has ghost bots which go checking the Forums automatically for people who aren't really there but have left a ghost behind because they didn't log out and reset (dropped connection, crashed computer, whatever). Doesn't the Internet proper have something like this? Carolly

There's a small handle on the left side of the server you see, and periodicaly they have to give it a yank and we all go swirling down into oblivion briefly... ;]

it automatically flushes people off here every 30 minutes if they haven't been active. not sure what happened to the database last night before we restarted it. someday the server will come back up BAR BAR BAR and i can retire!!

Gas pains...obstructed servers...a constipated dilemma of circumstances... ...too much food talk in the OT forum...;-)
