Nothing personal, but if you are posting through Google Groups I may not receive your message. Google refuses to control the flood of spam messages originating in their system, so on any given day I may or may not have Google blocked. Try a real NNTP server & news reader program and you will never go back. All you need is access to an NNTP server (AKA "news server") and a news reader program. You probably already have a news reader program in your computer (Hint: Outlook Express). Assuming that your Usenet needs are modest, use http://news.aioe.org/ for free and/or http://www.teranews.com/ for a one-time $3.95 setup fee. Newsguy, http://www.newsguy.com/ offers a variety of reasonably priced services. If you wish to experiment with real Usenet access, they will give you a free 2-day trial account. .................................................. ........ Will poofread for food. |

I've been with Giga-News for a couple years now, since Charter's news system became completely unusable. The only problem with Giga-News is they keep TOO MUCH info, they have everything back to 2003, about 422,000 posts in this group! That boggles my reader. Jon |
