It may be a name resolution problem. Can you ping 66.218.71.198 (That's yahoo.com) If you can then you need to investigate why name resolution is not working. If not then it's a problem talking to the router. And please, please, please, try to get your posts into plain text. I think this one came through as HTML and rich text. Many of us on here can't read those, so we get a load of gobbldeygook. -- Richard Urwin
