Certain Setting Required for last 10 Posts?

I can't seem to get the last 10 post link to do anything but make an error. I am on a Mac using Safari and so is there some setting that I need to make to resolve the error that I am seeing having to do with misconfiguration? Thanks.

Don't worry, I am on safari using a Mac and I get the same thing. 
Sometimes long searches time out, but I would have expected the Last 10 Posts search to be almost instantaneous.

I get the same thing, too, and I don't use either Safari or Mac... I use Firefox on a little netbook infected with the virus known as Windows....

It's been that way for a long time. Reloading once or twice after it fails usually works.
...
It's kind of sad how easily one gets used to things that really aren't the way they should be, isn't it.
On the other hand, if you can't do much to change it, it's easier on the mind to just adapt. I remember a story from our CS department where some people played an april fools joke on a secretary where they set up her computer so it shut down every second start-up. A year later she had gotten used to just always starting it up twice, as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
