I don't whether it is the absolute latest version which now connects to
u2.qrz.com (have a look at c:\spider\cmd\show\qrz.pl) as opposed to
plain qrz.com?

But, there is a problem with alarms in Net::Telnet on M$ systems. The
reason that you are seeing it is because the access to qrz.com was
getting really slow. 

The chap running it (Fred Lloyd - really nice chap - so don't give him a
hard time) is in the midst of changing servers and getting back to where
he was.

Hopefully this will improve soon. 

To anybody else using QRZ you MUST upgrade to the latest CVS or
overwrite your distribution with CVSlatest.tgz tarball from the website.

SHOW/QRZ will no longer work unless this is done.
