Ok - after some snooping I found that the vbportal hook was the root cause of the evil as it was redirecting global.php to the wrong location.

I removed the hook and reinstalled Easy Forms but with the same result. A look in the db shows no hooks relating to Easy Forms - I presume from a look at the xml file there should be?

Cheers
Russ

PS: I edited the xml and uploaded the hooks fine - still a couple of permission based errors but I'm getting there.
