Yeah I figured something simliar out and sent email here to that effect; 
unfortuantely email is hinky today because of the m$ sql worm 
circulating....oh well ! (My incoming email host was affected by a upstream 
router using said program to manage routing info. No comments please, it 
isn't my router.)

Um, another problem is with only one host host for the tlf and associated 
programs linked from Rein's tlf "home" page, that is now unreachable. I only 
get as far as 'rsm-eh.net.tue.nl' on a traceroute. Oh well on this too.
