Actually some of the problems (certainly the ones I had with CAB, were
tracked down to nameserver 158.152.1.43 which did not appear to be
responding so I couldn't get past "resolving host."
Changing the DEFAULT.CFG file to point at NAMESERVER=158.152.1.193
fixed it. Does STiK allow more than one nameserver to be specified???

As for the bad old days... WTF has happened to transatlantic links?????
On WWW, telnet and FTP I was getting the fasted download and upload times
I've ever got from Demon!
