All I can add is <clap>
though I do shudder at the thought of using netscape as a newsreader :)

Actually, Netscape newsreader is not so bad. (I've been using it for the
past month or so -- ever since the pointers were renumbered and WinVN
got majorly screwed up.) Mind you, the articles are still coming
sporadically and haphazardly but that has to do with server not the
reader.

And as to Microsoft Explorer? Grrr.

NOTE: If you hit the reply button, add an "e" to the "freent";
its absense is to stop the torment of automatic mailers.
