I anyone else having this problem? I can click on 1 link and it loads ok, click on a 2nd link and a lot of the time I get "page not found", if I am terribly lucky I can get to a third link before I get "page not found". I have pretty well given up using Explorer as it is "page not found" most of the time over the last week or so, mozilla is a little better behaved, but still gives me the "page not found" often. And yes it is annoying that you cannot automatically add attachments to a reply unless you select advanced in the first instance.

Sounds like your local IP server might be having problems. You might want to check with your ISP to see if they have changed IP servers and not told you (this actually happened to me).

I have contacted my isp and have asked them to investigate as all computers on the network have the same problem despite different software, the failure to load pages chokes the network also

Well it looks like it is maybe my modem router, everytime I try and access this website now, for some reason the modem/router logs scream **Vecna Scan**.

Can anyone shed some light on this please?

It's over my head, but a quick google tells me a vecna scan is a port scanner used to sniff for port vulnerabilities. However, all the instances I can find of router detection of same are for false positives (ie: router is being overly cautious). But it would be unwise to assume that's what's happening to you without some further investigation.

Hopefully one of our resident security experts will be able help out.
