On another tack thanks to Bob Grimes for rushing to my defense as
usual. I looked up mozarella - what's the deal? same **** as Google
with registration and sign up and all = who needs it? I'll stick with
Google.

Have you looked at the free accounts on teranews or giganews? Use real
newsreaders and not have to wade through all the carp in Google Groups..

Brenda Ann- what do you mean by "wade through" etc.? Maybe I am wading
through and don't know it. ;-) Is teranews and giganews free? I
remember checking for newsgroup readers three years ago but I just
wasn't going to pay for something that is provided for free.

Both have a free level of service. These are usenet providers, not readers.
I use Outlook Express, and have no problems. I believe Mozilla also has a
newsreader that would be free, as do several others.


John, I have used Free Agent for years (at least 10).
www.forteinc.com. I've just checked their website and see that they
have now "retired" this free reader in favour of the commercial
release which is $29. there are free trail versions or i could send
you the installer for the free package - 9Meg.
