Thanks, I was beginning to think it was just a problem here.  They say we're
always blaming the network whatever the problem and they always blame the
servers.  Having read what everyone has posted I think I'll have to put it
down to one of those things for now and investigate it further if it happens
again.  Thanks again

Heh, you should try working with the networking team, from a networking
company.... ;-)

Me too.  I now go the extra distance to prove a network issue (rather
than a server issue).
