She is going to change the DNS settings. She says something along the lines of 'even if it fixes yours and mucks up mine" which, ofcourse, it wont. I will (hopefully) be back on the fast connection very very soon.

She shouldn't have to do this, Lennon. You can change your DNS servers from right where you are. It won't muck up anything. Telstra have updated their DNS servers already. They emailed me back about 3 weeks ago (I'd fixed mine long before then though). I can't believe you're still using your 56K when you can use your ADSL!! Get moving! [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]
