What does it mean when I try to log on to eStatus and I get an error message which states: “ Unable to connect to data source?”
This will occur when our database is down for maintenance. This happens infrequently during normal business hours. However, we do bring our system down on a daily basis, around 5 pm, for a data backup and end of day processing. This interruption normally lasts only around ten minutes.

Why am I getting the message "The Page Cannot Be Displayed" message when trying to view eStatus on your Web Site?
This may occur if your computer is not using 128-bit encryption.
To determine the current level of encryption on your computer, click About Internet Explorer on the Help menu. The level of encryption on your computer is displayed next to the words "Cipher Strength."

If the cipher strength on your computer is not 128 bits, download and install the encryption pack appropriate for your operating system to upgrade your computer to 128-bit encryption.
