Just got a couple more now. I'm using Opera 6 or 7, depending what machine I'm on.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

IE 5.2 on Mac System 10.2.3 here, and I just ran into a couple myself.

I don't get any errors clicking on Buffistas Home. That's been pretty consistent.
Sadly, I have gotten a couple of the errors loading the home page.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Still getting the error at 7:24 a.m. on the east coast. Man, the posting volume is just brutal this time of day.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Snerk.
I get the error message in Mozilla and IE, at completely random times of day, with random frequency. It would seem that it's not a browser issue.
However, that's all I've got in the way of mildly useful info, so I'ma go back to lurking now.....

Again, to repeat what has been said, it is unlikely to be browser specific. (That is this problem probably has nothing to do with what browser you are using.) And, as has also been said, it is unlikely to be specific to the activity you are doing. Whether you are reading a thread, posting or whatever should not affect it.
1) If it is a spider, then it has zero to do with regular user activity.
2) We see this happening during comparatively light activity - lighter than other times when it does not happen. This means that if it is not a spider, but in the code or host configuration, it must be some specific type of connection is causing a problem or not being released. At this point the code has been gone over pretty throughly, so it seems that spider is still the most likely, with host the second most probable, and obscure code problems still not impossible, but definitely third in probability.

Yeah, I agree with Gar. I don't know what we can about a spider, but we can ask if they've changed any settings on the server.
(After having first post eaten) Because bored now.

I just got errors twice while trying to connect to my Message Center.

I'm having a hell of a time reading anything, much less posting.
Is anyone else having this much trouble? And do we have any information from our hosts as to what's causing the connections not to close?

I'm not having enough trouble to make posting or reading difficult, but I am getting the error message fairly often.
