Nahh.....far too complicated! Rename NOS.TTP as NOS.PRG and stick it onto 
your desktop, then run it whilst OASIS is still in memory. Then all you 
need to do is Unbatch News manually (and New Groups if you really want) 
when NOS is logged off.

Only downside is that it resets your clock back about 6 or 7 hours. Guy 
had a fix for this but it only buggered up my newsfeed. As long as you 
don't mind a mis-set clock this all works fine and you lose nothing. Resst 
your clock after using OASIS if you need/want to....

Hope this all makes sense. If not, e-mail Mr Swampdog cos he thought of it 
first (ta, Guy!).

Best wishes

Andrew
