Now tell me if it still happens or not. I can't reproduce it this way. But I can still reproduce it with microsoft's internet news reader and with netscape 3.0 (win95). Winvn runs for a while and GPF's and the venerable trumpet newsreader for windows just fails completely. Are you interested in the syslog entries from the various failures via the newsreaders?
