Help! Really stuck and confused
Hi I have registered on usenet and paid up for an account.
I have downloaded both grabit and x news, and whenever i try to search i get a 502 authentification failed message.
This is really doing my head in now.
I think the problem may be that I am on AOL????
Any help would be fantasttic

Am i correct in thinking that seeing as I am on AOL i have to use a different news server such as
https://secure.giganews.com/signup/
????

That is most definately a password/username issue. Normally a pass issue.
You sometimes get these errors when the usenet provider is having issues with their servers too.
