For some reason it's working again now. What is odd is I swiched over to outlook and got some Excel file attachment which seemed to hang it for a while even on outlook (file wasn't large) but when it finally came through and I closed out Outlook and then went back to the Bat things started working correctly. No idea what caused all this mess, probably something with the network people here at work:)
