Hi,
There was a thread here the other day regarding a problem similar to this. The 
subject was "pipex xtreme" or something like that. Richard Morrell mentioned 
something about BT not doing something at their end of the line. Sorry, can't 
remember exactly what :-(
Search the archives, I don't know where they are either though?

HTH,
Jord
