Update - Microsoft Responds to the Evolution of Community

In the meantime, MS's closure of their servers may well precipitate a domino effect on the leeches It's funny that you call the rest of usenet "leeches". MS has never declared its servers as being part of Usenet - it's simply allowed Usenet to leech posts ( it reduces bandwidth, after all), and feed responses to its own groups. To be part of Usenet, it would have had to acknowledged the UseNet protocols - which it never has done, AFAIK. It would also have needed to host other groups, which it certainly never has done. -- Noel Paton CrashFixPC Nil Carborundum Illegitemi www.crashfixpc.co.uk |
