I'm using STiK 1.08 with CAB 1.3 and the latest CAB.OVL from WWW131.ZIP on a
Falcon030 under single-TOS 4.4.

I have an account in the UK with Demon, and I'm using their DNS at
158.152.1.43.

The problem is that some pages refuse to resolve with CAB, yet with Finger
running under STiK in the same session, I've had no problems.

A case in point is the Channel 4 site at http://www.channel4.com. I used 
Finger to get the IP address to use in CAB as CAB itself couldn't get it.

In the past, I've even used NOS to finger sites to get the IP address 
because CAB can't resolve the hosts (or should that be STiK?).

I _AM_ using the same DNS in both STiK and NOS.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be most appreciated.

Regards,
Andrew
