It is driving me cookoo. I have another computer in a shed with cat 5 cable. I am having trouble at the moment with the modem hub in that only one of the four sockets work, but I put the cat 5 cable for the shed in the working socket and that computer works with the existing setup in sea monkey for mail and usenet, it asked for password for mail and the password worked. As soon as I get one of those round things (round tuit) I will have a go removing stored password etc PS this outlook setup is also annoying , it does not seem to wrap and it seems to like top posting. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
