Hi Mister_b

I notice you live in Essex, I've just had major problems with browsing but managed to resolve it . It is as one of the other posters said, a transparent proxy problem. I had a look at the Robin Walker page (cant remeber link- perhaps someone could post it) and you need to edit your settings in explorer. Basically you tell explorer to use the same proxy but use a different port (8080), the proxy server then doesnt bother intercepting the request and wont point you to its cache. As soon as I had made the change I was able to browse straight away, and dare I say it, it seemed marginally quicker!
