Before doing so, I had Nettamer and Arachne working just fine at my old ISP. For my new ISP I just changed the settings for my user name and password and my DNS numbers, etc. I experienced no problems with Arachne. With Nettamer I could access web-sites, but I could not log on to the mail server. I wrote to David ("Uncle Dave") Colston, author of Nettamer. I sent him some capture files and described the problem. He said that the problem had something to do with the way Nettamer was saying "helo" to the mail server. He solved my problem by making changes in NETTAMER.EXE and posting the program, as changed, on his web-site. Even though he changed the program, he did not change the version number. I downloaded the program, as changed, and all was well. Uncle Dave sure does provide some fabulous support! All the best, Samuel W. Heywood, Mt.
