I just posted about some weirdness with friendly URLs causing the errors you describe.  Reverting to ugly long query strings sorted me out so it might be worth trying.  My site was struggling so much I had to make the changes direct to the hostsettings table in the database.

Andy,
Thanks for the tip, I will try that.

Here's another one that makes me feel all warm inside:

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Server Error in '/Home' Application.

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

please follow the instruction on the error page, so the details get displayed and the reason for the issue can be determined.

Disabled the friendly URLs in the host setings and it's certainly made the site more stable. Still getting the Object not Referenced errors though when trying to create a new thread in the forum module. Not tried the news module yet or editing the html/text modules. Guess I'll just be keeping my fingers crossed that it'll be in the next release...
