    I was screwed by those too. I made an "improvement" to a Twitter user control that would abort a thread if Twitter was taking too long to return a result (as it often does). When Twitter was having issues, a bunch of threads got aborted. By default, IIS restarts when there are too many unhandled exceptions (including thread abort exceptions) in a certain time period. One innocent little Twitter user control on one page of the website kept taking down the entire website (actually, several websites). What a PITA.

            a) Make sure you weren't dreaming b) Check if some crazy IT person changed some policies and pushed them down to all systems (or, they changed a router configuration incorrectly.)

              Yesterday wasn't a Wednesday. I once had a process that failed every bank holiday Monday. We never did work out why.

                  Should I maybe run it by Christian Graus first? I'll wait until he posts in the Lounge and reply to him there.

                    Try resetting your computers clock and see if it works.

                      So Friday 13th fell on Tuesday 9th, this month. That's good to know. At least it's passed.
