Tried what you said Gremlin, and no joy.

Arrgghh!

It does bring up the homepage from Neil's link, which I couldn't get before, but when I click on Images or Maps etc, it goes back to Talk Talk page.

Re: Google?

It is a Talk Talk problem unfortuneately but there is a fix by using another DNS server but you might not want to do it if you are not that techy.

I might be around you way tomorrow and could make the changes for you if you like

Rebooted, gave it a kick, and it's happily fine now.



Thanks all, for help and advice.

The boot treatment used to be called 'percussive maintenance' when i was working....and if percussive maintenance broke whatever it was you were trying to fix...well, you needed a new one anyway
