I seem to have solved this problem by deleting some files I had installed a few days ago when I was attempting to slipstream an XP -Pro Installation CD with the SP2 file. I had some of these installed on my Desktop as I had intended to create a slipstreamed CD for my laptop .

There appeared to be some corruption of these which resulted in Checkdisk running after one of several re-boots and producing quite a long "correction" operation resulting in the production of some ".000" files.

After deleting all these and the installed slipstreamed stuff, I got access back to the Web Site again.

I'm sorry I can't be more specific in describing exactly what action it was which caused the "cure" but that is because I'm as much in the dark about it as anyone ! There also seemed to be several "host" files sprayed about several of my Partitions , whether as a result of this or whether they had been left over from some other of the many " tinkering " operations I never seem able to resist getting involved in , I have no idea I'm afraid . I also deleted these.

I reckon I'll never make the MVP status!!

Once again - thanks for helping
