Ah Hah!  This experiment worked! It told me that the server was looking for
CrickRock.com and not crickrock.com . Case-sensitivity!!!!! argg!

you gave me this same warning when i first set out to make a large ringlink
system- and so far it's been able to handle it without any problems.  i can
see maybe some issues arising but it'll be good to see how it handles huh?
the actual "living" rings is probably a LOT less than 2,000.  I'll have to
do some house cleaning.

I would suggest a step in the readme.html file saying something about
"directories you will have to create apart from using the included directory
structure:"  this will include the sitecount directory and the mo directory.

Who would have thought that you would release a new version 2 minutes before
I posted that?!  Of course I went back and installed 3.04 and it's working
great now.
