What is a "Socket Failure" error?
Every once in awhile when I'm trying to read an article on Yahoo, the page fails to load and provides the following error:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to retrieve the URL.

The following error was encountered:

Socket Failure

The system returned:

(98) Address already in use

Squid is unable to create a TCP socket, presumably due to excessive load. Please retry your request.

Your cache administrator is yahoo-dev-null@yahoo-inc.com.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What does this error mean and why am I getting it?
