@Home usenet/newsgroup problems?

[Praetor]

Anybody else having problems accessing @Home's news server today? Mine seems to have been down all day. Agent gives me a 10061 error whenever I try to connect, which translates to Connection refused by server.

Time to hunt up the list of other @Home servers and see if it is a nationwide thing or just my pipe....

As an @Home user you can use ANY @home NNTP server. Try all of them in this list and see which of them:

1) work
2) Are fast
3) Have good completion
4) Have good retention

...enjoy!

Thanks Chad. I already knew that I could use any @Home server, I just had deleted the list I had downloaded a while back, and the others are always slow (in comparison) for me.

I do appreciate the thought though.

Oh... and it IS just my local server. The bums.
