Quick report back.  Baza, cheers :-)  I rebooted the router (pulled
the power plug actually) and tried....bang, in straight away.  I'm now
left wondering why did this happen and on only one website???

Alan.  'Host' & 'Dig'?  How do I go about using them?  I think I've
heard of Dig before but I may have it confused with an search tool? 
Please, can you give me some more information on them?  Thank you :-)
