Obviously I stole it, that's a given. Just can't remember where from.

I'm assuming Grabit will be similar.
The 480 error suggests that you've not configured it properly, by putting in the username and password required.I've noticed that NTL/Virgin have about 5 different servers. Any ideas as to which one is the best?This is the grabit one jp.
I'm using news.ntlworld.com but notice you two are using different servers, hows the service? I'm only getting 120kb/s max and have noticed massive groups (a.b.boneless etc...) are missing from the group lists.

I steal everything by downloading.. Doesn't matter what it is. I even steal OS's but Vista was pre-installed so i couldn't activate it and now i have this copy but i am not sure what package the activation key goes too. Obviously it doesn't go to Ultimate Vista because i can't activate it, it will shut down Vista in 20 some days so i can't use it.
How good is Newsleecher v3.8 Final?
I've seen 3.8 and 3.9 floating around but 3.7 is working fine for me.
Try one of those shyte generic public torrent websites, there bound to have it.

I've just added the other one as well so I have both servers now. It doesn't make the overall speed faster, however it does seem to make it maintain the speed better. I just did that earlier this evening (based on this thread) so it's a bit early to say.
Basically if I look in the manager tab it seems to be downloading using both servers at the same time, splitting the bandwidth between them. My speeds are fine, the only limit is that some groups are missing. However not so as I would pay for a different service. Things spread about usenet anyway, so it's just a matter of waiting till it gets to a group you have.

i pay for my service, and my speed maxs out at 790kbs all the time. not bad for £7 a month.
there's two things in this life i hate; 1. Cultural discrimination and 2. Gypsies

I get it free and it maxs out at 1200kbs. Not bad for ...
Tho' to be fair you will have a much better selection. I don't get boneless, dvdr, mm.tv and quite a lot of others I would like.
I really should spend the £7 or whatever, but I download so much just now it seems a bit mad to.

I download stuff as well. What's the chances of that.
Hmmmmm, interesting. Are you being limited to a 120Kb/s speed or are you constantly maxing out your connection.Peerzy

Even wierder is that I've got the M level of Virgin Media (2Mb connection) yet Newsleecher is only downloading at 120Kb/s and speed test is giving me 966kb/s which divided by 8 gives 120.75Kb/s. I should be (and have many times in the past) hitting 160Kb/s+.
Any of your Virgin Media users have similier problems?
