    just thought members here would like to try a free newsserver,i have been using this for about 9+ months and used it to download hundreds of gigs worth of binaries etc

    Newsserver address:freebin.readnews.com
    Server Login:Any ( it does not require a login as such just put anything )
    Server Password Any ( Again anything will do )

    you can get about 4 concurrent connections and download speed is good,retention is about 4-5days but hey its free ,i have given this server to a number of my friends and they have not had a problem using it,it seems to support a fair few newsgroups,not sure how many but not had a problem with getting things from them so dont seem like a problem

    ENJOY!

    lol. 25KB/s is waay to slow to download anything tho! but yeah, i guess free is free.

    Its slow speed is made good use of by the best clients to automatically fill in completion holes in ISP news servers.

    thanks but free ones dont provide good speeds even ISPs.

    nice...I'll that that as a slave server for fills

    THX

    --edit--

    just thought of something, when you have use a pay service they always claim that they do not log what you download at that they have a privacy policy for the customers protection. When you add a free newserver you wont be covered with this protection.

    Just something to think about.
