The combination of CAB/STiK and Newsie is pretty good now.

I and nearly everybody else using Oasis2 with Zetnet had no joy whatsoever. 
There was a lot of bad feeling toward Phil and Dave from those that had 
registered the program and got little or no support. In the end after quite 
a bit of pressure I finally got a refund from Phil.

It's a shame really because I liked Oasis, but it just wouldn't work 
reliably, if at all, with Zetnet. Thankfully Newsie and STik do :-)
