Seeing symptoms of a server meltdown somewhere on the net...

Fine here in FL through GigaNews.

Not in Ft Myers (Comcast/Giganews). It sometimes hangs for 20 or 30
seconds trying to find the server


Using Giganews via Comcast here south of Boston. New headers load right
away, most posts download and display right away, but some take 15-20
seconds before downloading. Usually everything is pop - pop - pop.

It could be that the feeds are changing around a little. Easynews did
the same thing last week - I thought it was my computer. What
happened is that it would connect right away, but it wouldn't retrieve
the headers immediately - a little hang, and bodies were abnormally
slow.

I still think it's terrorists.

Maybe it is Microsoft? Vista release problems.
