Here's a tip. I could not log in yesterday. About 30 times!. Well, actually it 
would log in then freeze or hang up. Drove me mad.

I thought I had broken Oasis so I reinstalled. I thought I had bad sectors which
were crashing the machine when it tried to write to them. I went fairly frantic.
Bloody demon I thought. Bugger 'em.

I had a power cut a few days ago when on line, and it scrambled the system date
to some nonsense value, and it was this which caused the problem.

Fixed the date, fixed the problem :-\
