Hi Antony
I'd check the list archives.
If i remember correctly, this similar errors have occurred for other people.
I think it was usually due to some webserver configuration issue.

but.....You say this error is happening intermittently...

Have you checked to see if this error can be reproduced when doing specific tasks ?

Looking at the URL...

If you do a url decode of:
ct.pl%3faction%3dlist_names%26direction%3dDESC%26oldsort%3dname%26db%3dvendor%26path%3dbin%2fmozilla%26login%3droma%26sessionid%3d1173017171%26status%3dall%26l_subtotal%3d%26l_name%3dY%26l_contact%3dY%26l_phone%3dY%26l_email%3dY%26l_amount%3dY%26l_tax%3dY%26l_total%3dY%26name%3dJean-Philippe%2520Blangy%26sort%3dname

you get:
ct.pl?action=list_names&direction=DESC&oldsort=name&db=vendor&path=bin/mozilla&login=roma&sessionid=1173017171&status=all&l_subtotal=&l_name=Y&l_contact=Y&l_phone=Y&l_email=Y&l_amount=Y&l_tax=Y&l_total=Y&name=Jean-Philippe%20Blangy&sort=name

Maybe the name "Jean-Philippe%20Blangy" is a problem ?
Try re-entering/editing the name and see what happens.

Could it be an encoding problem ?
What are the database, webserver and web browser language encoding settings ?

Cheers,
Roy
