I don't know the exact dates of the problem boxes, but March 2006 sounds too early. Maybe it is something else after all. Try not putting it in standby for a few days and see how it behaves.

There isn't really a system that needs to cope. With the odd exception, the interactive applications are sent to the boxes in much the same way as the TV pictures. They are broadcast to everybody all the time and the STB just chooses to receive them when it needs to. So it makes no difference how many people are using them.
That said, the system that transmits the applications isn't the most reliable, and goes wrong occasionally. So it could be that, it could be a fault in the way the application was written, or it could be something wrong with your box. Did you try a reboot?
