Thanks, Peter.
Well, I was trying out the 'Whoeasy' plugin on Outpost so I
decided to remove it as its evaluation time was almost up.
Now then, fingers crossed, everything *seems* back to normal.
Mind you, I don't really understand why it should have interfered
as it's only a DNS lookup tool?
We'll wait and see.....
