October 27, 201114 yr Noticed another thread about a Dutch company offering free usenet and got to wondering. I'm not interested in downloading binaries, but I used to enjoy several newsgroups, including at one time soc.culture.thai. Big problem there was I needed a newsreader with a GOOD killfile -- there was one guy in particular I needed to block by his IP addresses because he used dozens of aliases -- and the only one I could find was a program called Agent, which they stopped making available for free. Of course back then I was using Windows. About a month ago my hard drive started acting up and I've ended up trashing my Windows installation (by accident) and my install disk reports a CRC error after copying files so I'm using Ubuntu Linux, which is great except there are a couple of Windows games I can't play. Anyway, there are decent newsreaders available on Linux. As far as I know there still aren't any on Windows. Anyway, back in the day ISPs used to bundle a usenet news feed with their services. I live in Nakhorn Sawan and my provider is 3BB Broadband. I was wondering if anyone knows if they have a news feed and, if so, what the url is.
