Yep, in the days before binary groups and posts, I could keep 6 months of Usenet groups on my server in about 100MB of drive space. -- You can't trust your best friends, your five senses, only the little voice inside you that most civilians don't even hear -- Listen to that.

Ironically, techarena and the various "banter.com" sites might be the only place to keep carrying the microsoft.public groups. If there is a single person to blame for many independent servers to stop carrying microsoft.public groups, it's a worm known as Julien �LIE. He can be found in news.admin.hierarchies, news.admin.misc, microsoft.public.news.server, microsoft.public.msnewservers. He's going to send out the check-group and rm-group messages - not Microsoft.

I know people who've banned whole domains like groups.google.com or webtv. -- Villi Bernaroli, Italy VFP, SOAP, MS SQLserver, MySQL, Oracle |
