Somewhat worryingly, I've seen a couple of posts along these lines recently. QDNS has been running along quite happily and then starts to crash for no apparent reason. One poster reportedly rebuilt their machine from the ground up (low level format, zero all data, fresh installs all the way) to no avail. In the couple of cases posted, the problem seemed to disappear after 48 hours. As my immediate upstream provider regularly manages to foul up routing tables resulting in no access to or from their (and hence our) network, I'm beginning to understand that there are problems beyond ones immediate control. This appears to be a case in point although I have absolutely no idea why it happens and it appears to be a rare, random event. Not much help I know. Perhaps the Men and Mice guys know what could cause this?
