Newsgroup problem

I am not able to receive the newsgroups I normally get, but am getting other
groups, when I try them. Is this message getting through? Write me off
group at

Ideas?

Take out the junk.

This is a relayed message from Jim Morgan:
************************************************** *************
My ISP has had my two favorite groups (this is one of them g) screwed
up for the whole weekend. I have tried to get it fixed, but "it is the
weekend", and "we have no idea what the problem is", or... substitute
you favorite excuse. I am hopeful this is resolved, but not at all
confident.

In the meantime, I am looking for suggestions for a web based
newsreader, that 1.) is free, since I hope I don't need it for long,
2.) can expand threads, so all of the conversation's headers can be seen
at once, and can be downloaded in the correct order. Basically, I like
the Outlook Express style of presentation.

Any help out there? What are your favorites, and why.

You will have to respond via e-mail, since I can not see the answer if
you post it to the newsgroup. Use Take out
the JUNK.

Thanks

Well, it appears that whoever screwed it up, came back to
work Monday, and fixed it. Everything is back working, so ignore my
request.

Thanks, all.

One of the reasons why I left Charter is because of their shabby usenet
support. They consider usenet an add-on (They will tell you so) and a
nuisance and when I had Charter their feed was Supernews, a genuine usenet
dud.

You forgot the smiley, BOb.

You *did* just forget them, right BOb?

After all, where else can you get such cheap pleasure at someone else's
expense! g

Probably Charter. Yup. Just read the sig. They "upgraded" a couple
weeks back. The whole thing crashed (think it was Friday) and must
have come back up some time this morning. It wasn't up at 4:00 AM.
Seems to be back up here at least for the time being.

Now I have a choice. My system thinks it's up-to-date even though it
is missing the last 3 days worth of posts. They don't even carry 4 of
the primary groups I was following. (digital photography groups)

In the meantime, I am looking for suggestions for a web based

2.) can expand threads, so all of the conversation's headers can be seen

Used to be Deja-News or some such, but I think they became Google. I
think Google then dropped all but the search engine.
