I had spent a few days        trying to determine which groups were actually active,       but wasn't successful 100%. So I came up with a list       based on activity I found on other usenet statistics.              I would have assumed that freeware would have been       discussions, not binaries as it was not a alt.binaries       group; but it seems people like creating spam and problems       however they can and started posting microsoft products       to the group in yEnc encoded RAR parts. So although        newslink didn't bring in the binary file; it was going       against my download from astra. I bought 25G that everybody       said would last a life time, and I'm < 10G because of these       stupid binary postings in non binary groups.       ---        Amessyroom       toolazy.synchro.net:2323 (telnet)       ---        þ Synchronet þ Too Lazy BBS - toolazy.synchro.net:2323        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187 129/14 153/757 7715       SEEN-BY: 154/10 30 110 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114 229/110       SEEN-BY: 229/206 317 400 426 428 550 700 705 240/1120 5832 263/1 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 5006 291/111 292/8125 301/1 310/31 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 341/66 234 342/200 396/45 423/120 460/58 256 1124 467/888       SEEN-BY: 633/280 712/848 770/1 902/26 5020/400 8912 5054/30 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
