Garth - yes, we figured it out. It was caused by a bug in the original
Tango2000 (corrected in the SP1 release), where user variables aren't
released correctly. Witango5 doesn't have the same problem, as far as I
know.
That server has a Small Business license, which only allows 10
concurrent users. To my understanding the Standard Server allows an
unlimited number of concurrent users, so I'd say it's pretty odd that
you're getting License Exceeded errors. (Even the documentation says
that too many concurrent users may cause slow performance, but will not
cause any service failure.)
I did notice large amounts of traffic in my logs, at about the same time
every morning (2ish, I think), that seemed to be coming from the search
engine crawlers. I didn't notice Saturdays particularly, because our
traffic is so light on weekends that we never had problems then.
Are you getting the "server unavailable" error when you request a
webpage, or just log messages?
The only think that I found to fix my problem is to restart the Tango
server to purge all the variables. Do you have logoffs and/or purge
your user variables on exit?

BTW Jamileh did you ever figure this one out?
I have recently installed Wi5 on Win 2k and am very happy
with the performance. BUT... I have a standard server and
have been getting "Licence
Exceeded" messages, particularly on Saturdays.
Now, I don't use pop-ups in my tafs at all so I am not creating extra
user sessions that way.
However, I think that maybe the search engines do a lot more indexing
of the site on the weekends when traffic is lower, and this may be
causing some of them.
Any further experience with this problem which you can shed
the light on?
I certainly didn't experience any license exceeded problems when
running T3 with a standard server.
I have reduced the variableTimeout from 30 minutes to 10 and use
UserReferenceArgument in all of my links in all of my tafs.
cheers
