Then, a few weeks ago, it stopped working. Now only http://harborside.com will get you there. I want to be sure about this, because I have clients who spend a lot of money advertising their website addresses as http://www..... If the same thing happened to them, so that customers thought their website had disappeared, they would be mad. Regards, Irv
