Http response 999

When I use my program for back link search sometimes, especially yahoo returns me 999 error. Especially from my work. When I tried enetr query straight to web browser it returns the same error (with some description this is ionly temporary error and etc.). Query string is OK, because later it functions with the same query without problems. At last the same error return altavista and alltheweb too. It is because they are gainig results from yahoo, i think. Do you have the same problems with yahoo, or it is problem somewhere here in my work network (maybe a lot of hits from work proxy servers...)

 

Having the same problem when I use the 'linkdomain' feature.
It started about 12 hours ago.

 

It looks that their new siteexplorer doesn't function very good

 

I'm getting the 999 error also. Started to get the error yesterday.

 

me too, I wonder what is that for? I always check the inbound links found in my website.

 

same here, there might network error?
