Agreed, I still maintain that -net or -questions will be able to answer this
better than we can. We're just ISP admins. Like, what do we know? (Apart
from how to kick tape drives really hard).

You know, I don't actually recall anybody suggesting that first. Perhaps an
idea. Hmph. I feel like an idiot now.
Anyway, I'm just going to point out the re-cap I posted yesterday, and the
fact that alexus has hopefully temporarily disappeared over to -net and
-questions. Hopefully the last message we should see on this thread (apart
from this one) will be alexus' solution. Bit of a cliff-hanger this one,
innit? And people say Eastender's is tense.... :-)
