Default MSFN is now officially dead, down, offline, gone, no DNS records...

The egomaniacal pricks have got msfn back up and running.

It's now even more horrible to view on FF2 than it was before.

Though if you want to make a few hosts reconsider whether they'll
continue carrying it, you're going the right way about it.


Nice way to spread FUD.

Micro$haft doesn't have enough leverage to make that happen.

Nobody has enough leverage to make any given usenet group go away,
regardless what gets posted to it.

MSFN.org is dead.


But like a zombie - it's back today.

(FWIW I'm a usenet fan and have never been an MSFN user.)


That's ok.

MSFN has outlived its usefulness for hosting useful material or
answering questions about win-98 related topics (both hardware and
software). But their egotistical, infantile fettish for locking threads
that don't go their way is alive and well:
