Bill!

Thanks for the response. I made the adjustments recommended on the page you
pointed me to.

All I can say is that in the earlier version I set the Internet Zone on my
computer (connected to the internet) to HIGH and Medium on the Trusted Zone
and it all worked fine. Either that was a fluke or ZL has changed their
policy.

Oh well, it's working now - just not as "stealthily" as before...

Thanks again.

Stephen
