Recommendations for good NNTP News client

Post by Dare2 »

I use FireBird and FireFox. I need a good news reader for windows (2K)

Any suggestions or recommendations?

Thanks. :)

The google beta is best one I've used

The beta solves most of the problems with the old set up, such as the delay when posting.

Hi naw,

Thanks. Um .. I am Icon blind and/or just incredibly slow.
What do you do to find/use the news client in Thunderbird? :oops:


Edit:

Found it.
*Hunts for excuses*
They made it too obvious!



Thanks naw. :)

:-) You're welcome - Fire[Fox|Bird] / Thunderbird are really nice apps, arent they. I used them since the first betas and (even the betas) never had a crash.
