Think an Unlimited account with NewsHosting on Usenet would be a better way to go.
Read though NewsGroup Guide To GrabIt if you want more information on it...
Sometime yesterday afternoon my SSH login stopped working on all Findnot's servers. Their webpage is offline.
I don't quite trust Metropipe; their website doesn't say how their service really works. Findnot made it clear: Putty to Findnot's SSH servers. Findnot's "security holes" were never an issue for me because I used Privoxy, as one should with any SSH proxy; even Tor recommends it.
Also never really had a problem with Findnot's throughput, though I usually had to look around for a fast server and sometimes change servers. But there were 3 or 4 that were pretty consistently fast, like over 1Mbps.
Findnot also forgot to charge me after the first few months so I was getting their service free for over a year. I wonder if it was sloppy bookkeeping that put them under?
Well... I hope the service will be down only for a short period ...
I payed one year in advance three months ago and would be pretty angry if I they close the service, for whatever reason, and make me lose the remaining nine months ..
Will keep you informed if I find any news.
Don't you think we should open a new thread about this subject in the forum ?
This may help newcommers find the related posts, who also lost their connection with findnot and are looking for some kind of info, without reading all this pretty long thread.

Hi All !
There are numerous posts talking about FindNot.com not working anymore since about 12-24 hours.
Even the websites aren't working anymore (www.findnot.com & www.ipeliminator.com)
Any news welcome here !

Found another "afiliate" site to FindNot.com.
http://www.anointedsfindnot.com
No info there for now but they may be able to give us some info on what is happening.
Maybe their core sever crashed or has been busted ?
All their vpn sites are down as well...
This isnt good
If findnot is dead what other anon proxy servers are as good (no log kept, multiple servers etc...)
sigh...

I think your right. I checked up on your Newsgroups Guide, and I signed up to NewsHosting (with the link you provided in your topic). btw, you did a good job in putting the FAQ together (it was very helpful in getting started). I don't think I will ever go back to Bittorent now.
thanks again for your post!
