(I've had a similar thing with my ISP and e-mail blocking of rootsweb mails, which they consider spam - so I sympathize! You should see the spam I get now!) I'd suggest you ask your ISP for a static IP address through which they allow port 80 to communicate. You can set your computer/router to that static address and things should work as they used to. It's not difficult for them to do that, but they will be reluctant to do so! (You'll be a special case then ....;) John > >OK...
