Also, there are some FAQs pertaining to robust standard errors and maximum 
likelihood estimation at

http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/stat/#robust

If you are getting pseudo-likelihoods in situations where robust standard 
errors are not involved (and remember, robust SEs can be forced by various 
options; the output will tell you if robust SEs are being used) please 
provide details.
