As others have mentioned, I've been getting a lot of time-out errors when navigating around the forum. But I think I can help! I recognize the SQL OLE DB error, and perhaps I can offer some of my experience as a MS SQL Server programmer. I could create indexes and defragment the database on a schedule so that it will run queries faster, and perhaps transform some of the heavier queries into stored procedures. All of these could have a dramatic effect on the performance of the website. This might also make it possible to broaden the search function to include message content as well as topic titles without hindering performance.

Would the admins be interested in something like a trade of SQL work for ad space when my band's new CD comes out later this year?

Great, please keep me posted as I have a window of opportunity as far as having some free time, but I don't know how long that will last!...My CV and portfolio are also available for review at http://www.websiteandsound.com, in case M@x would like to review my SQL Server qualifications...
