I spoke too soon Chris. It has just taken me 15 minutes to send, not write, one email and to open this page from the main forum page. Something which should not take more than 15 seconds.
I'm posting again in the vain hope that someone from NTL might just realise that a page full of people with the same symptoms, all being told at a £10'er a time in my case, that nothing is wrong, could actually indicate that there may be a problem somewhere. I would not be so cynical to consider all those £10 calls might be being put in a fund to save for the cost of the fix.
I cant afford to keep ringing Tech Support, (as long as you have no other software than windows, and no hardware bar a modem) each and everytime this happens.
Symptoms including pages not being displayed, if they are, lacking images and therefore navigational buttons, or looking like a word document. Trying other proxies seems not to work.
