I would be very grateful if someone could look at the log below and assure me that nothing is running behind the scenes that should not be there.

In particular, Hotmail does not seem to be operating as quickly as some weeks ago and I am timed-out on a regulsr basis.

Many thanks for any help.

David Rees
