Thank you Thomas. I wanted to close the loop for future people who have the same question. One concern I had was that the fetch might be happening from another port besides 80. I saw some funny port numbers that were being dropped by my firewall. Closer inspection showed it was the script kiddies usual games. Also, thanks for the TextChas. I initially got drowned in Asian ads for ground up endangered animal parts. Most of that stuff was halted by the TextChas. -- Time flies like the wind. Fruit flies like a banana. Stranger things have .0. happened but none stranger than this. Does your driver's license say Organ ..0 Donor?Black holes are where God divided by zero. Listen to me! We are all- 000 individuals!
