All I know is, I was accessing google groups back when it was still
dejanews and never had a problem. Now, it doesn't even work. Asks a
buncha stupid questions first, like "do you want the old version?"
then, no matter what I pick, it doesn't work. No tree, folded
articles, limited history, etc, it's been going downhill for years.
I'm sure it works for ppl with Winblows and no security measures and
who register for every step and allow all cookies, blah blah, but I'm
not one of those, so I'll do without. Simple, eh?
