Hi John

Are you operating behind a firewall?
I believe the current OSX version with Sherlock is not working when behind
firewalls and has problems with proxys.

I have the same issue and use the local (Tasmania) University proxy.
If you find a fix can you let me know. (cdmorris@postoffice.utas.edu.au)
