Troubleshooting Netflix on the PS3

I recently had the Netflix disk for the PS3 suddenly stop working. It would just halt at the red splash page, and never seem to move on. I'm not sure the deactivation of the device step is required, but it's part of the path I followed to the solution.

1) At netflix.com, deactivate the PS3 device
2) Ensure that the time settings on the PS3 are set by Internet
3) In the video section of the cross-bar, go to the BD-Live utility, and delete "Netflix"
4) Insert the Netflix disk, and let it do its thing

I'm sure step three is the magic step, but I wanted to record everything just in case.
