Off Topic. Not COMSEC related.

Take it to a news group that supports News Clients and NNTP in general.

Because you need to learn!

Just because that news service won't terminate you for OT posting, does NOT mean you
should post OT.

If you want to ask questions, do it On Topic and within netiquette (to some degree).
Otherwise you will find that the Troll label will stick to you like glue and and you will
be lonely because you will be KF'd and/or ignored.

Like a stated in another thread...
"I've given you a 2cnd chance, and that's why I'm not outright ignoring you, but I'm
losing patience."
