When the site is having these issues, the back end admin panel still "usually" loads fine, which tells me it's something going on within the site script and that's why I have been having someone help me go through files and look for possible causes/conflicts in coding while also deleting a bunch of things we don't need cluttering the site. So yeah, rebooting the server probably would have no effect.

And yes guys, it does look like part of the issue could possibly be that the XWF has caught a massive case of c.diff. In the fedding world it's sometimes called e.diff but it's basically the same problem. Working on a cure now...
