UNABLE TO REACH CERTAIN NEWSGROUPS?
1.2.01 There Are Several Reasons Why 1. You didn’t search the list of newsgroups carefully or didn’t type the name correctly. 2. The list of newsgroups you searched isn’t the latest list of newsgroups on the news server. Use your newsreader’s “Refresh Groups List” function to obtain an updated list. 3. Your ISP doesn’t support the newsgroups you can’t access. Check with your ISP to be sure. Many will accept requests to add newsgroups. 4. There are ISPs, which do not support the alt.binaries.* newsgroups. For some this is a matter of limited disk space. For others it is a way to avoid handling pornography, copyrighted materials, and ripped-off commercial software, which make up a fairly small percentage of total groups, but probably comprise 95% of the very substantial total byte traffic on Usenet. If this is the case, and your ISP won’t add a few specific alt.binaries.* groups for you, you will need to change ISPs or subscribe to a separate news service to access the alt.binaries.* gro
