Hello again, and thanks again.

Not sure .. but the way I understood it was that when you do reach some
threshold that your download speed was decreased - to something more like dialup speed .. 96k?

>Have you tried changing news servers:
>    * news.west.earthlink.net
>    * news.east.earthlink.net
>    * nntp.earthlink.net

I have tried them all.. That was one of the first things I did try.

Server requires autherization and is checked off - username/pw, and
always has been.

Tools, News Servers - connection limit is set to 3 (has been). Tried changing
2, 4, ... nothing.

They did say that they would contact me 24 - 48 hours and hopefully this isn't just "the brush off". In the mean time I will compose excerpts from suggestions you've all passed on into a file and send it to the person who contacts me.
Your suggestions sound more in nature of the problem than the stuff they've
fed me thus far. Worst case - I move my email to Embarq and find a news server
elsewhere.

I will surely post more when they "call me in 24 - 48 hors".

Thanks again y'all..

Paul

( isn't this exciting ....  .. @$#!^%&(+.,! ) ... NOT!
