 * For the past 12 hours I’ve been having a strange problem. My WordPress site locks
   up when loading a post which contains flickr-gallery’s photoset code.
 * The site loads fine when the plug-in is disabled. I installed a fresh copy of
   WordPress with the default theme on another server and it did the same thing.

 * Further to my previous post. I’ve tried a fresh copy of WordPress, also tried
   a new API key on Flickr and tried upgrading to WP 2.8 … WordPress is now locking
   up and the site is not contactable for about 5 mins even when I activate the 
   plug-in now.
 * I’m using GoDaddy, and I have about 800 photos on my Flickr account. It was working
   fine until about 12 hours ago.

 * I’ve just tried the plug-in with another hosting company and it worked fine. 
   So the problem is with the plug-in working with GoDaddy. Any ideas on what it
   could be? I’ve paid GoDaddy for 12 months hosting, so I don’t want to move if
   possible.

 * Does it lock up when you go to the Flickr Gallery settings page?

 * Having problem with Lightbox and found possible solution from “Compatibility 
   Issue with 2.8” discussion.
 * Thx.
