A number of people made useful suggestions including making sure the was an entry in the Windoze LMHOSTS file but to no avail.
Sounds very wierd & painful. I was one of the people who probably suggested editing 'hosts', since it did work for me a couple of times. But you say 'LMHOSTS'... There are two similarly named files in my Win98se system: C:\Windows\LMHOSTS.SAM C:\windows\hosts [no suffix at all] This second file is the one I suggest you try. I know little about Win32 TCP/IP beahvior, so perhaps this is just supersition. good luck - Jason ___________________________________________________________ Jason CUNLIFFE = NOMADICS['Interactive Art and Technology']
