| Hi again.
| Once again I cannot connect to the Eternal-September newsgroups.

There have been a few problems with the Eternal September server
names / DNS lookups.

I thought the DNS issue had been resolved. However, you could
try changing the server name to '62.141.42.50' (without the
quotation marks). That should overcome any DNS lookup problems.

The Hooplehead Alert stands. This isn't a Windows XP issue.

But if the OP's only USENET access is through Eternal September and it's
not working, why should he not turn to a group of "friendly" folks who
might be able to supply some insight to his problem?

Thanks, it started working again this am.
I will keep your response for future reference.
Thanks again,
