In C++ and Java, "exception errors" are "thrown" to the "error handler". 
The error handling routine then "catches" the errors. After they are caught 
there is some routine that is called to determine what to do with the 
error. In this case, the error handling routine just displayed the error 
message to you the user. Good for programmers trying to debug errors but 
bad for users.

In your case, it probably was a one-time problem with the search request. 
The request failed and the error handling routine was called. If it 
continues when using the Looksmart search engine, I would review my 
Javascript settings in IE (Tools -- Internet Options -- Advanced tab -- you 
could click on restore defaults) or Netscape (Edit -- Preferences -- 
Advanced). Another thing to do would be to find the Looksmart cookie and 
delete it. For IE (C:\windows\cookies) or Netscape 
(C:\ProgramFiles\Netscape)
