Most agents and publishers, I think, have added Web sites only as an obligatory necessity that mostly brings them stuff they don't want, GG, and is part of the "expanding" publishing universe they abhor and resist as best they can.

On the original point, I agree with Finley. At the end of the six weeks, it's best to get the manuscript going again and not waste time with the agent. In these cases, it's good to have some sort of agreement that they acknowledge receipt of the manuscript in the first place. If you have done this and received no response in two months, it's an agent you really don't want anyway for various reasons of failure to communicate and/or set priorities or keep their work organized. Pursuing them is mostly a waste of your time and effort.
