   Sorry it's been a while since I made my OP- real life interfering as   
   usual.   
      
   Well, I didn't have to do anything as drastic as you suggest, but   
   similar. I named my /.pan directory .pan.bak and got Pan to recreate the   
   directory. One by one I copied across the old Pan files and, as these   
   things will do, it was the very last file I copied that b0rked it again.   
      
   The file 'tasks.nzb' must have somehow become corrupted when the power   
   cut out momentarily. I deleted it and voila, Pan was running just as well   
   as it had ever done.

   That's what I wanted to avoid doing, but your reply helped set me on the   
   right track. Many thanks for that.

   you do say may be given in evidence. Do you understand?
