      @johnpoz Well, yes, I know it is the loopback.

      Here is the thing.
      When I set the DNS manually on the Windows PC to the pfSense IP address, the problematic page worked, but accessing the pfSense webGUI page reported a rebind attack.

      I then added the loopback to the DNS list in System>General Settings (DNS Servers section). It apparently then all began to work fine.

      Now I am even more confused.

        Yes, I think that must have been where the corruption was - I removed it and it is all working properly now.
