Thanks to Insuber's multiple suggestions, one of them seems to have worked.
I was too impatient to change one thing at a time, but either the skin downloads, or deleting my conf.ini seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks. I'll leave this bug report up in case these changes don't fix it for others- at least for the moment.

P.S. I've just run a couple of sorties on ATAG, problem gone. I can also confirm that TSNotifier is not a cause.
