problems searching for posts??

I seem to be having a problem and didn't know if anyone else has reported the same problem or not. If I am in a forum and do the "search this forum" feature, I always get the page that says....

"The page cannot be displayed
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings."


I didn't know if it was just me, or anyone else.

Nope, I just tried it in THIS thread, and it worked fine.

Can you tell me the EXACT same thread you experience this problem in? I want to check the same way you found the problem.

I went to parts for sale, clicked on the "search this forum" tab, typed anything in the box, and when I searched for anything I got that same page

Just tried searching for gibberish and also for "headers" and I get appropriate results.

Are you using IE or Firefox?

Are you still getting this problem? If so, how long has it been going on?

I cannot recreate the problem.

Okay. I wish I had a better answer for you. Ususally if this is a common problem, others pipe up.

Kinda strange, sorry for the hassles. Let me know what you find out!

I do not have direct access to your password, it is encrypted. I can change it but not view it as it currently is. If you want, e-mail your password to jason@camaroz28.com and I will test it.
