May I kill it or edit it? Ric There are some domains that are already known to be very broken when you have a mixed IPv4 and IPv6 network, and can be added to a blacklist so that they'll only use IPv4. You've found one of them. Long ago I put a null entry into my DNS server for a few domains, including that one. It's one of my favourite web browser error messages (being unable to find some adserver, somewhere). ;-) -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
