I see this message:

[mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.

FYI, I'm working off hazy memories, and somewhat anecdotal evidence, but I

Activity Monitor. I'll have to Google at some point. Sadly strange events in 
the Universe are taking up my time right now, so I might not get to this 
quickly.

Cheers,

Jamie
