Server appears temporarily unavalable...Help*

[Poison elf]

I am not sure myself what exactly is causing this issue. I don't believe it to be as simple as just updating to service pack 3.
I have had service pack 3, and never have had this problem on live. I get this though every now and then and recently on the test server on the same computer.

I just did a defrag last night and what a ton of fragmented files.

As a guess though I think this is a possible issue with sp2 or firewall blocking files or something on updates, possibly leakage, but just a wild guess.

I would suggest doing a defrag on your main disk first if you haven't recently while having pirates for very long. At least my test game now isn't doing it after that.

To do this or check, click my computer. Right click your main drive, and click properties. Under tools you can click defragment now, and analyze your drive to see if you need to defrag and view how many Pirates files are in this.
