Which are the best newsgroups to look into for filums pm me if you want

Ta again muchly
Sorry m8, just got back. Regarding newsgroups, look at http://www.slyck.com/ng.php
You will need a news reader such as newsbin. I used to use ntls servers, they werent half bad but there wasnt much variety available, currently using easynews - $9.99 for 20 gigs - loads of variety.

I suggest you check out ntls first - its free, get used to the way stuff works so your comfortable using newsgroups and if you feel the need sign up to a dedicated provider.

HTH

P.S. all servers will tend to max out you connection.
