Default Do you hear them..? BOOM BOOM BOOM! The drums of war grow louder.

Tell them to get rid of that mickey mouse German university news server and sign on
to a decent US outfit like GigaNews.

OK, then the server is the problem. Contact support@yourIsp

I've had running commentary from them ever since I got back. Taddy's ISP has even got into the fray...they say there is

nothing
wrong with Leapfrog...This isn't as bad as AIL yet, but it's getting there...

The problem is not with the Germans, but with Katy's mickey mouse
US ISP.

I think you are in error. My ISP, for example, sends all news directly
to GigaNews. Their proxy server is only just a step in the process.
No changes to headers or rules are enforced.

Katy should try doing a tracert to look at all the steps to her
Kraut server. She might get a clue there.

Katy if you're reading this open a command window. It can be found
on XP start menu under Accessories.

In the open window type "tracert news.leapfroginet.com"

It's been done. It's the ISP.
