Whether it was related or not, I don't know, but the Seti status page 
(or the technical news page) said thay'd unexpectedly had to reindex 
one of their big databases and hence had been off line. My seti 
connection worked OK on Saturday about 19:30 for the first time since 
Friday morning. As I'd only just got the 2.4 OS/2 client running, I 
was beginning to think there was a bug in it :-)
