I for one wouldn't use a Usenet forum for help any more. I had so much hassle with some people on Usenet that I dumped it and the software that I used and no longer even visit the groups where I had friendly contacts. Usenet is rife with spam and with trolls and there is no way of keeping them out of a newsgroup unless it is on a closed server with password/user access. Forums have much greater control in that on many boards visitors who cause a nuisance can be banned - you can't do that in Usenet. -- Cheers, Anne Using The Bat! v1.61 on Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 A ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
