[QUOTE="kilrizzy, post: 1887264, member: 698145"] I am trying to join the newsgroup: news://alt.atheism I don't know what I would need to access something with the "news://" prefix, I tried in thunderbird and other usenet news readers but keep getting an unable to connect to server error. Is the site down? Or am I using an invalid program/address? It seems like most news groups use "news."site.com so I am not sure what I would need to read "news://" Thanks! [/QUOTE]
