Thank you for reply.  I am not going through a proxy.  The server details at 
the bottom of the error is the hosts server, echo.xnoc.net.

I haven't changed any settings since it was working but I have found out 
that my router is playing up.  It times out when I try and log into it. 
Could a possible problem be that the router is blocking the 401 
Authentication Required header?
