Subscription e-mail update links were affected by the bug on Nov 3 from about 4:00 PM (EST) to about 8:26 PM (EST) when it was corrected. Anyone receiving a subscription email notice would have experienced the same problem clicking the link to the related thread.

The problem of the thread not showing up when you did a search was a separate issue:

The search box at the top of each page is a Google search. Google indexes the site frequently, but you happened to search for a relatively new thread that it hadn't picked up yet, so it wasn't in the results. If you had used the "advanced" search link, you would have found it - the advanced search is the forum's own built-in search tool, so it's always up to date (but not as friendly as Google).
