@Sarj – What type of error page are you talking about? Have you been able to fix this issue yet?

Yup. but there are times when my visitors land on an error page. Grr. But after a while, it returns to normal.

@Sarj – So you're also hosted on Dreamhost? So far, I haven't had any issues of that kind and hopefully I won't ever have to deal with it in the future. If Dreamhost didn't send you any warning or notice about Googlebot, you don't have to block it. Anyways, you're welcome! :)

Oh, so that explains why there were times when my site experiences internal error which disables the site temporarily. At first I thought my site got banned (haha!) or there's a problem with the hosting. Turns out, it was Dreamhost. Joni, have I told you that?:P Anyway, maybe I'd just have to block googlebot from my site forever then. Thanks for the info! :)
