arrrrrrgh.....  
  
Ok, I finally found out exactly what's happening. I use a Check Point firewall 
and had the nntp application protections turned on.  
Checkpoint, it their infinite wisdom, fails to regonize the LIST OVERVIEW.FMT 
command as being valid, and so the firewall sends a RST to 
the client. This is what was causing the crash. Therefore, this is really a 
failure to gracefully handle a RST from the server's IP when 
attempting to download headers. I'll take up the issue the command being 
interpreted as an attack with Check Point seperately.
