bt broadband, thats exactly what its called not the yahoo n not the othe r1 i am in the middle

They don't even provide newsgroup access? I can understand them blocking certain alt.binary newsgroups but not any other news group.

Which BT service are you on?

thanks you! they do not have news groups!! how much will i be looking to pay?

Just input the newsgroup server that BT give you. If they dont run a newsgroup server then you need to subscribe to a pay service.

Never used the software but its probably looking for the address of the newsgroup server you wish to use.
