Well...due to my own brilliance, I was 'apparently' unable to use PMOG for approx. 20 hrs. I use this term 'apparently,' as I was able to use PMOG once I restarted my computer, and restarted Firefox. Perhaps a full restart was not required, but I felt that it was better safe than sorry...I also did not upgrade to .406...or whatever the new one is...

Once the restart was completed, my DP totally caught up to what I would have estimated them to be based on my web usage--so no loss there. But just before I experienced total loss of PMOG usage, I got a 500 error (at the end of a mission, just like everyone else) and a 404 error, when just trying to get a mission refresh...and then nothing worked!
Ha ha! So I went to bed...

Cheers!

Wait, is that a HelloKitty M16A2 in your picture? The picture is too small to tell if it's an M16 or AR-15 but it def looks like a pink assault rifle...

It is Hello Kitty! And it is apparently an AR-15...

I was able to replicate the 'error' if that is what it is; My computer auto-powers down after a quiet hour, so I never really ever actually close FF windows...they just go to sleep. Apparently, after a full day of web slogging and no 'off' time, the PMOG toolbar just 'stops working.'
So I then finally close Firefox...or restart my computer, whichever comes first...
Upon PMOG log-in, everything is fine--including all the dp that I may have garnered in the time between 'it stopped working' and the restart.
Any clue why this happens?
Now that I know what it IS, I am less frustrated.
Cheers.

p.s. I have upgraded to .406--but I don't think that has anything to do with my question, since it happened with .405.

I think there is a general lack in synchronization or ability for the toolbar to access the pmog servers after the computer, specifically the network connection, goes to sleep and then is "reawakened". Can you tell me what operating system you're running and if your computer goes to "sleep" or is "hibernating". I'll pass it along to the extension guy :) Thanks Pixielo!

XP home (Whatever was fresh 9 months ago as Vista came out--I did not want to beta test Vista)

DSL, basic 100mb (DSL is way faster than cable in my neighborhood)

No hibernation, just the 'sleep mode'

Thanks so much for your time!
