Hi Russ.
I haven't made any changes here at home but I can tell you what I did do
that worked.
I used system restore and went back to a time when I knew the streaming
worked. My computer told me no changes had been made but I tried the station
anyhow and guess what, it worked! so I'm happy enough with that!!
Thanks anyhow :)
