Giganews isn't a news reader, it's a news server. You need to pay to

-pondering- maybe it came free with the level of service we had when
we signed up. it's certainly not on the bill. the machine connects
to something like "newsgroups.comcast.net" to download the groups.

and the newsreader is mt-newswatcher, now that i think about it. but
i'm told that giganews is in there somewhere.

or maybe it will all be gone next time i get on the machine at
home.

i note that newzbot no longer has this group available to read.
