Many thanks for your help,

I have no idea about the provider. We use BT, which a lot of other 
people do.

I must confess that my first thoughts were "It must be a BT problem". 
But a little niggle entered my mind concerning ChanSpy - it was in use 
at the time. I just can't think of how this could happen internally.
