"The connection has timed out

The server at www.holyworlds.org is taking too long to respond.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web."

I've gotten this message at least ten times today. :roll: Usually, if I hit back and then forward, it will load. Usually I can tell when it'll say this because it'll be extremely slow loading the page.

Tech help anyone?

Sometimes when I have this error, it's my internet connection. However, I have had days where HW runs slowly. It tends to right itself after awhile. I'm guessing it's just a server thing?

I believe it was said that it happens when a lot of people are on, and the server lags a bit; so you just have to go back and forth a little until it settles down. It happens to me occasionally but it never lasts for very long. :)
