Search feature crash (can reproduce at will)

I seem to be able to make the "Search this forum" function crash at will when searching these words together:
data validation list
Remove the word "list" and it works.

It opens a new page with the follwoing error:
Quote:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 524288 bytes) in /home/eforum/public_html/search.php on line 1156
Seems I can do this in any of our forums so far.

It just doesn't seem to like "data" and "list" in the same search box, on it's own or with "validation"

Re: Search feature crash (can reproduce at will)
This is still a problem, it seems that most words I use to search causes this fatal error issue.
Quote:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 71 bytes) in /home/eforum/public_html/search.php on line 1155
The line number is always between 1152 and 1160

examples:
"call macro" FAIL
"macro" FAIL
"excel 2000 toolbar" FAIL
Its a crap shoot whether it works or fails.
I bet I have generated 20+ of these fatal errors from searching in the last two days.
I do not get this on other sites using vBullitin.
