I apologise if this has been asked before - I did a brief scan of old topics and couldn't see it.

Every day at just past 8am, 12pm, 4pm and 8pm, my forum goes down for abount 30 seconds. It's not my ISP, as my users have also experienced this - most of whom are on a different continent and certainly using different service providers! It's not my PC as I use up to 4 different PCs to access my forum via broadband, POTS, ISDN and LAN (depending where I am!)

I'd just like to be able to offer my users an explanation.

Thanks very much

Jan

IIS (the webserver) is restarted automatically every 4 hours starting at 11:06 pm (Florida time - GMT minus 6 Hours).

This is to free up memory and keep the forums running as fast as possible. It takes about 30-60 seconds and its well worth it for the benefits.

You're the first person to ever post about it.

Padraic,
