Are you talking about this site http://thepeoplesmovies.com/ ? I didn’t have any issues, but I would suggest that you go to settings > reading and reduce the number of posts to show on a page to say 5. It took quite a bit of time for your site to load.
Are you having problems getting that error on the main page, or some other page?
Have you tried logging out, clearing your browser cache and cookies, restarting your browser and then taking another go at it?
Also you might try shutting your computer down, waiting for a couple minutes and then start it up again. This should clear the DNS cache which could also possibly be causing the issue.
-
Also, what browser and browser version are you using?
Have you tried a different browser?
-
Have you recently upgraded your virus scanner or firewall? It’s a long shot, but that has caused some issues in the past.

I had an issue with Firefox and WordPress which was caused by an AVG add on which automatically installed on a recent update.
Disabling that add on fixed everything.

Good to know, thanks for pointing that out, which reminds me…
Disable all of your add-ons, restart the browser and then try again to see if you still have the problem. If not, re-enable the add-ons one at a time till you find the one causing the issue.

If you are talking about Firefox 4 here,
i seem to have too many problems firefox, flash crashes alot, now i cant seem to use my gmail (buttons to reply, look at wont work)
I’m having crash issues as well, and after using it for an hour or two, it becomes very slow and unresponsive and I have to kill it. I don’t think FF4 was quite ready when they released it, there seems to be too many issues and right now I’m only using it when I need the Web Developer or Firebug add-ons and then I shut it down again.
If they made the web developer and firebug add-ons for Safari, I would basically abandon it all together except for checking my website designs.
