    I do want to thank everyone who took an interest in my problem and tried to help me. We don?t seem to be getting anywhere; the problem seems to have no solution. When it looks like a solution is close, I can?t find the appropriate screen, page, option, tab or checkbox to finalize the cure...

    To Spidey 07 Thank you for posting your comment in my thread. I'm very confused though, because to the best of my knowledge, few of the things you mention relate to my network problem. Is it possible that you intended your comment for another thread? Thank you Mike
