Excellent Spyware?!? I can talk to a real person by calling
BellSouth, or when I was with Earthlink, had a real person
then. Once you get to know your comp and to tweak it's
settings, like I have, I've found no need to call tech
support for about 2 years now. The only issue I had with
BellSouth was when I had my phone reconnected and web
service reestablished, I was being double-billed, but that
is straightened out.

BTW, I just checked my German server: news.individual.de and
it carries this group, so if you want to access it via a
newsreader, then get thy browser over to

http://news.individual.net/

The service is free, but since all requests are approved by
humans, it may take a couple of days. The retention times
are shorter than most. They don't do binaries.
