Who needs money????? I have a stable career and a regular income, and a
small amount of investment income.

Lacking money, you'd better be a good "cook". <lol>

They don't have to. They have to click to get each article
registered at the top of the viewer. So if they see the ass-hat
they don't want to see, they just skip it.

Killfiles are most useful when you read news in a
just-hit-n-now manner. Then you usually don't notice
the asshole coming up next, and have to waste a keystroke
getting past it.

I've heard that vibrators are desensitizing. And can actually cause

Did you not set them up properly on purpose? I had the perfect work
around - which I didn't need after all... it's called copy/paste.

She can have OE on any PC regardless of what ISP she is using.
And that is all she needs in order to read newsgroups. Her ISP is
just responsible for her connection. All she needs then is a news
server, essentially a series of numbers added into the appropriate
box in IE, to read and post to news groups. And, while many are
accessible only via paid subscriptions, there are many free ones,
such as the one I am posting with this minute.

In fact, OE is not necessary, it just makes it really easy.

So now you want people to think that I am Patches, whoever that is

What is the purpose of that, Stevie?

To discredit me, for what reason?

Hmmm?

Now let's just talk about why your pink boxers are all in a knot over
me. The above statement is true. Quite simply true. For anyone to think
their "ISP" is forcing them to use Google is just silly.

And, the post you replied to by saying you should have killfiled me
at my first post, was also true, e.g. to assault someone by throwing
things into their open car window is initiating violence. Which is not
smart.

I realize that you are a self-important moron with sexual inadeqacy
issues (hence your hilarious attempt to control the content of a
Usenet group), but what is your problem with these posts?

Be specific.

IIRC you have to use windows to use OE, and OE has some major bugs, but
yes, you are correct - it is not associated with any ISP.

Well that was very helpful..."Nope. You have plenty of options." I
trust all of those options are available to people living in Honduras,
correct? You didn't seem to suggest any.

I happen to live in an area in which PayPal allow not accounts to be
created and from which most US based businesses will not accept credit
card payments. That effectively shuts down any way to pay for setup
fees.

Every alternative that has been recommended to me requires an ISP to
provide an email address as well as STMP and POP3 information. My ISP
does NOT provide any of those. Without that information, I've yet to
find USENET access through anyone other than Google. I'd like to see
the alternatives that you say exist.

Hello???? Did you read? the ISP does NOT offer newsgroups. I have OE
and I have several other newsreaders. They don't do any good if an ISP
does NOT offer newsgroups!

I don't even like OUTLOOK

I"ve tried many times to get used to it.. I know where all the buttons
are....
I've seen all the views they have to offer

google handles these posts like no other
i like to "view as tree"

1. it's easy to see who is talking to who (in one view)
2. when logged in.. you get a quick overview of any replies in a topic
you've posted to
(just makes good sense)
3. It's Free

Yes, I read. What you are saying is that your ISP does not have a built-in
newsreader.

I have OE

NO, I am afraid your understanding of this issue is lacking. If your ISP
allows you to access the Internet, you can hook up to news servers
that will work to access Usenet.

Your ISP cannot keep you from using an independent news server.

Email me and I will show you how to go about this.

"-SD-" > wrote

Try this.

Go to OE. Choose "Tools" "Accounts" and click on "Add." Choose "News." Put
in a display name ("SD" or whatever) and email (real or whatever) then put
this number in the box:

208.234.59.139

That is a free news server that allows posting.

Let me know what happens.

I think that it would be a service to a number of people to provide this
info. I am very happy with my setup (a Mac running MT-NewsWatcher
connecting to a pretty nice newserver run by my full service ISP), so
I'm not going to do any research.

One hint, which may be totally useless. Will any of the free newservers
accept your Yahoo Email? I use a real Email address in my posts, but
obviously many people don't. As far as SMTP, if you can't provide one,
your local newsclient won't be able to send mail. Maybe this isn't a
big deal, though.

I wish you the best of luck, and enjoy reading your posts. The fact
that you use googlegroups doesn't bother *me* at all, I'm just glad that
I'm not forced to use it. I use Google to look up old posts (I think I
go back to 1991 on this group).

Even if the method I posted in response to your other charming post
does not work, there are web-based Usenet servers that will. Some
are pay, some are not.

Here is one news server that advertises that it serves Honduras.

https://secure.usenet-access.com/_se...thersignup.asp

It is $6 a month and you don't need to use PayPal, you just enter your
credit card number. If for some reason you CANNOT DO THAT IN
HONDURAS below are the instructions on how to subscribe via post:

To subscribe by POSTAL MAIL using money order or personal check:

If you cannot subscribe by either payment method above, you can always pay
by non-refundable MONEY ORDER or PERSONAL CHECK. This allows you to pre-pay
for 6 or 12 months of full newsreader access. To use this option, please
follow these instructions:

1) Get a MONEY ORDER or PERSONAL CHECK, in US Funds, made out to "Centaur
Networks LLC". The allowable amounts are as follows:
USA & Canadian residents: $50 (6 month access) OR $100 (12 month access)
All Other Countries: $100 (12 month access only!)

2) Send the payment to:

Centaur Networks LLC
Attn: UA
PO Box 845
Corning, New York 14830

3) *Don't forget to include your EMAIL ADDRESS so we know where to send your
account info!!

As soon as payment is received we will immediately create the account and
send your username, password and the server name.

In addition, by entering "Honduras Usenet Access" in the blinking
GOOGLE search box I found many, many more news servers
you may subscribe to that specifically address the issue of Usenet
in HONDURAS.

http://tinyurl.com/etcow

All of the concerns you voice above may be circumvented
by checking for servers that offer web-based access and
allow subscription fees to be mailed in. That is, if it is
true that people in Honduras cannot simply ENTER
THEIR CREDIT CARD NUMBER like everyone
else.

I have had credit card entry denied when trying to make purchases of
numerous things from Honduras, The school I work for has had their
corporate account denied because it originates in Honduras. When trying
to make a phone call from the US to Honduras on a phone at SeaTac that
used credit cards, the call was denied because of where it was going.
Credit card fraud, credit card theft, piracy and ID theft are major
problems here and merchants are hesitant to accept cards from Honduras.

Well, I am sorry to hear this. Meanwhile, there is nothing at all wrong with
posting via Google. Steve Wertz the twerp is the only one who made the
asinine suggestion that all posts from Google should be killfiled.

You're misunderstanding.... her ISP doesn't offer email or usenet. It
doesn't matter what software you have if your ISP doesn't offer the
service in the first place.

And I think that *you* are misunderstanding also. Nowadays, you can
access both Email and newsgroups from sources other than your ISP.

However, there are also many ways to block access.

If her ISP connects her to the Internet, she can access both email
AND Usenet. In fact, she is doing it now. She has a Yahoo email
address, and is posting through Google. The question was, are there
other ways to access Usenet and there are. I gave her links. Names
of servers she can physically send a check to, that will give her access
to Usenet via the web, if nothing else.

She had NO question. She made a statement and said she didn't have
those services through her provider. What's so hard to understand
about that? Either you have them or you don't. If you don't you have
to find them by other means.

I saw one link and I thought it was very nice of you to find it for
her. The down side of free servers is they don't stay free for very
long if they are any good and they don't stay around if they aren't
any good.

I only read RFC and rec.travel.latin-america (occasionally). The
majority of my posting is to RFC with the occasional odd post to RTLA.
Even with the links cybercat posted for me, tt really isn't worth the
hassle to have a newsserver access for essentially one newsgroup.
Google works just fine for posting to only one newsgroup.

Google IS just fine. The whole reason this topic came up
(and I should thank you, I now know a whole lot more about
Honduras!) is because Steve Wertz jerkishly barged in and
announced that he is killfiling all Google posts. He is an idiot.
For my part, I just didn't want you to feel limited to one way
of posting if you weren't happy with it. Peace!

Not true. I have used two for years, and they are very good.

Teranews did cost $3.95--a one-time charge.

But x-private is completely free, and very reliable.
