I host my web site at atspace.com, which is free and bannerless, (no ads), but recently when I try to visit my site, instead of my index page I get a page that says "500 Internal Error". What does that mean? What causes it and most importantly, how do I correct it? Is something wrong with my computer, or does everyone who tries to visit my site get the same error message? I've never use a free host before, but if this is typical of their service I'd just as soon pay for a reliable host. Can anybody answer my question? Thanks.

This link seems to explain the error.
You may want to contact your web host company for support.

500 is the generic error.
Usually, it happens when you're using some sort of CGI or script, and the script has some sort of error (syntax, etc.). It can also happen with a mis-configured webserver.
The first thing to do would be to check the error logs for the web server. But since you're using a free host, I doubt you've access to them.
Basicly, contact the people that administer the server and ask what's up. They may be able to help.
If you changed anything recently, you might want to change it back, just in case...
