SharePoint Web Services 404 when adding web reference

When adding a web reference to a sharepoint web service in VS, it finds the service and it's methods fine - displays the methods in the Add Reference dialog.

But in the Web Services found at this URL: box on the right, it says

There was an error downloading 'http://<server><site>/_vti_bin/lists.asmx'.

The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.

I meant to add that the site appears fine on the SharePoint web site.

When I get the error, the Add Reference button is disabled.

Any help would be very much appreciated - I've seen this problem listed on several sites, but no one seems to have an answer.
