Hi iVan...
Definitely a good idea to NOT use the "smart update pinger" plugin, as well as removing "pingomatic" from your ping list.
Pingomatic has had several issues with duplicate pinging rss directories which I've heard has lead to banned blogs in some cases.
Personally I use MBP Ping Optimizer: www.maxblogpress.com
Which bypasses the default "spammy" Wordpress settings and allows for some sweet customizing and manual pinging.
I also use the following ping list:

Thank you Richard for your imput here as well. If I would've had any more challenges with UP Smart Pinger, I would have used your option. Take Care, Met
