Apparently NTL broke their server so my net access is doing a good old fashioned whore's knickers routine (up, down, frequently nowhere to be seen, and on the occasions there is something there, extremely skimpy with worrying holes in) So if I appear to vanish don't worry, I'll just be swearing at people and inanimate objects in a vain attempt to make broken things work by sheer volume alone.

starting to wonder if you were still interacting with society, plus was starting to get slightly worried!:-) Yup, NTL are being awful. I have a modem somewhere so do have alternative net access (at 33.6kbps - yikes!!).
Also, all of the 6 computers here, with three on win2k, one on win98, and two flavours of Linux, are having the same problems.
On the good side, it can't be as bad as BT:-)
