Thanks for your reply Eurico. What is puzzling me is that other programs do have internet access - so presumably it has nothing to do with router settings (the router being ignorant of the application trying to access the internet).
Also, since turning off the Windows firewall has no effect, it would not seem to be a firewall problem. Similarly since FF, IE etc do not have problems it cannot (?) be due to something like TCP/IP setup. I did reinstall Opera but it still will not access the 'net. As for reinstalling Windows from scratch .......................
