I finally had enough of them. Couldn't use them with Windows Live Mail to 
view anything in here, constant disconnects and dropped/denied connections. 
I emailed their technical support and it was obvious the dweeb didn't pay 
much attention to what I had written, as he advised me to do things I 
already stated I had done.
Signed up for Giganews and as soon as I changed the server name and password 
in WLM, the messages here showed up. I cannot recommend Thundernews. They 
used to work well, but they seem to be cutting corners that I need to stay 
sharp.

Yup, keeping up with "Doctor Who" and "True Blood" among other things. 
Giganews is da bomb.
