Am I the only one who can't log into usenet via comcast at the
moment? I've gotten a "502 access denied" error message for about 20
minutes so far. Email is fine, I didn't get the web on first try -
but did on retry. Does anyone know what's going on? I hate to talk
to them because they act like it's my fault. They assume I've changed
settings or done something else just as bad.

I wonder if GigaNews is fighting an onslaught of SPAM messages which
has put them offline? We fight them in our own way, but can you
imagine how much cr*p they have to filter out?

TIA

I have read in another NG that there have been problems with Comcast over
the past few days-that they are not admitting to (rather blaming the
user).


Usenet, HTML. All they have said that it is YOUR fault and they do not
support NG's.
