my url is "http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/barry-m"; This is recognised 
and accepted and followed with a request for a password. The password is 
rejected.

7 phonecalls later, 4 of which were cut off, 2 were completely useless 
and 1 complaining about the lack of service I will now try an email. Is 
Fair Go next?

thanks

Barry
