During that time I have been visited by various spiders including slurp, scooter and architext. In these days of pay for submit, free listings are worth their weight in gold. Am I about to lose all mine ?

But a permission error is a weird kind of problem, most search engines would take an attitude of 'try again later.' I would imagine they handle it as if the site was unreachable. Bolot
