Andrew (or is it James)

Thanks for your on-going suggestions:-

1) It's XP Pro with SP2
2) 512 MB
3) Don't know off-hand. If I've been to a web site which uses them, then I'll probably have downloaded. Almost certainly I've got flash (e.g I think the Arcade on this forum uses flash), but not sure about Shockwave.
4) Might try that at some point. At home, I'm going through a router, so am 'on a network'. At work, I'm on a network and going through a (Microsoft) p(r)oxy server.

Normally, I DO have XP firewall on, but I've tried turning it off - no difference.

Don't see it as a local problem - work access is via ADSL, home access via NTL, and different areas (Warrington/Sale).

Thanks for your interest by the way. It's an intriguing problem!
