Server not found

Firefox can't find the server at newsgroups.google.com.

* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

How many does Google need?
They already have Youtube, GMail and VirGle from the Google main page.
Obviously this wasn't going to be real since they already have their real ones.
