Sorry, I am not sure. I was hoping you had a bootable backup, and could
just make the comparison.
There's always the option of deleting everything (including the caches)
and reinstalling, if the worst comes to the worst.

I think that the choices the Mac gives are not entirely clear.
As far as I can recall, DHCP with manual address does behave in the way
you report. I'm not sure what it is supposed to do.
Manual configuration should work.As 4mula1 says, most likely problem is
not entering the DNS server address.
Just like the others have said... but if you don't want to interrupt the
currently-playing track, press and hold Add.
The album will be added to the playlist after the current track. When
the album completes, random play will continue.

Like bpa said, the announcement script is _not_ a plugin, it's a
standalone script you have to run when you want to show something on

every time you got a new email. But on it's own it won't do anything.

This is not a plugin, but a standalon script which must be executed using
