Now this is interesting.

I haven't had time to check or change anything since my last post, and
as I came in to work this morning I thought I'd try it again. It
worked first time. I know our gateway/proxy hasn't been changed as it
would have been one of the guys in my team to change it. And my PC
hasn't been touched as I left it locked all weekend.

Microsoft? Have you been fixing things behind people's backs?

Thanks for all the help&advice chaps, I wonder if the others in this
list are now seeing the same thing?
