Yes. And it is doing that. But for things to work I need it to stop putting 
in that one line..

That is correct..

Well my ip address falls within that range. It is 44.135.34.209.

Right. And that is why I wasn't entirely surprised to see the system 
objecting to that ./route/del statement..

So, if I want to work anyone on the 44.xx.xx.xx network - I need to delete 
that statement. Otherwise I can't but I can see the rest of the world.. Not 
good enough though.
