Received the following message. Have seen it on a couple of other longer threads as well.

Just asking, can you remember which threads, and possibly paste a title or URL here if it happens again?

What browser are you using?

If you're using Internet Explorer, try increasing the amount of space for the temporary internet files. (And/or delete your temporary internet files) Based on the message, it's trying to do something that it doesn't have enough room for.

In Internet Explorer, go to Tools--> Options Look for browsing history (or temporary files.) Should be on the first tab. Delete everything first (at least the temporary internet files. If you delete cookies, you'll have to re-log into anything you stay logged into.) If that doesn't fix it, go back to the Options menu and got to Browsing history--> Settings. Change the amount of space IE uses for temporary internet files.

I don't know about Firefox... I've only had it a few days. =)

Try this: Go into your User CP ... Edit Options ... Change the thread viewing mode to linear. See if that fixes the problem.

Well, this is a server error. All you can do is mention it... as you have :)
