Yours does not sound so much like my Saturday mail problem at all. I suspect my ISP had problem with mail servers as web access seemed normal. The ISP's web site includes a window disigned to inform subscribers about problems, upgrade schedules, etc. But, no word there. Other services by the company also are "temporarily" suspended. Then, late Saturday, my mailbox overflowed with bounced messages containing animation. So, on Sunday, after zero contact except with the LinkOnLine sales department that promised to intercede, I called my first ever ISP, The Grid.net about mid-day and Tech Support's Nick answered on the first ring. I said, "I'm back" and immediately established an account. The lesson here is that I'll check for support once-in-awhile, just make sure it will be there when needed. I'm lucky this was not an expensive lesson.

Not really sure what the problem was Liam. After a completely clean install of Win95 the probem went away. So I kinda think it was a corrupted file that wasn't being overwritten with just an "upgrade" install. Funny thing was the NT box was given the Sportster 28K and after that wouldn't download anything from Q+ BB. Kept kicking me out as soon as I was connected. Thought maybe Q+ BB was down. But with same problem Sunday decided to do a new install on the NT machine and the problem went away over there also.... Anybody need there computer played with??!! John Ahhh windows :( At least you aren't the only one. I spent all weekend with Eliot A. reloading his system after a similar tweaking escapade.... Sean
