Space Forum / Astronomy / June 2007ATTENTION NEWSGROUP READERS: Someone has spoofed my username & address
ATTENTION NEWSGROUP READERS: Someone has gone to my email provider and opened up an address with spelling similar to mine but not ending in the characters "iro". This person has sloppily spoofed my username and address by posting it as bozo_de_n...@37.c0m and has left his conceited calling card as Colonel Jake so wantonly and often does. Let this gesture on the heels of Virginia Tech speak for itself. This poor insecure illiterate fool is a menace and deserves to be shunned. Thank you for taking note. And yes as a normal person I am adamantly against casual and needless cross posting. It is extremely hostile, conceited and should be considered what it is, a rude antisocial gesture. -Bozo-de-Niro- > And yes as a normal person I am adamantly against casual and needless > cross posting.

Whoever gives you access to the internet should also allow you to access and download newsgroups, if you want.

He's doing something wrong or has clicked a link that makes it appear as if he's being denied access. Hey TJ why don't you describe your problem starting with the fact that your're using a MAC to logon to the internet and that you use Google Groups to post messages. Maybe somebody else here will recognize the anomaly you're experiencing and tell you what's what. -Bozo- > You don't need Google to get on usenet (newsgroups). > > Google doesn't own any newsgroups. > > Whoever gives you access to the internet should also allow you to access and > download newsgroups, if you want. Thanks for the response. Now, who gives me access to the internet? Are you talking about my service provider? That's bellsouth. Are you talking about my browser? That was internet explorer. In a response from google I was told that my explorer version was probably too weak, so I went into my hard drive and found an old version of netscape and am now using that. When I had outlook express for e-mail I was able to get the groups directly on my computer, but then one day it didn't work anymore, with a note coming on the screen saying my outlook express files had been "corrupted", which I think is just a fancy way of saying that outlook express on my computer is no longer strong enough to access the groups. This is a boring response, I know, but that's because I'm not good with the techno speak. But I appreciate your response. I am now able to get to the groups using netscape. The IE would not work because it needed to upgraded. But my computer will not accept the IE upgrade. So I'm using this old Netscape which I do not like. I am now aware than my problems are my own fault, that I am to blame for not upgrading with everyone else. Every so often you have to re-sole your shoes (or buy a new pair), so why should it be any different with computer upgrades? So now, soon I should know how much I really care about keeping up with the Jones's. If it costs more to feed my computer than it costs to feed myself, one of us will have to go, and it won't be me. But really, thanks for the suggestions, which I appreciate. Tommy Joe > > You don't need Google to get on usenet (newsgroups). > > [quoted text clipped - 50 lines] > > Tommy Joe The easiest way to repair corrupt files (since your computer won't accept an upgrade of IE) is to simply put the Windows CD in and reload Windows (95 or 98 or ME). The reload will keep all your favorites and accounts intact but will fix all corrupt files and replace any missing files and make IE run like it's supposed to (very good). Just make sure that you have the correct code for that Windows CD version. A knowlegable friend can assist you with this as it should only take about an hour. I don't like Netscape either. I refer to it as "Nutscrape".

I haven't got all day! ...... Once again, thanks for the suggestions. I will save your response and pass it along to someone who might be willing listen. But till then, believe me, I don't even know what windows is. Reading all that techo speak (looking at it from a distance is even more startling - is like trying to read a foreign language. But I'm serious. I just now noitced it. Your paragraph was not intensely difficult to ingest, but was also not easy for me. But now, staring at your paragraph from a distance, squinting my eyes on purpose to make it look like an entity unto itself instead of just a bunch of words strung together. It's like all I see is IEWindowsCD94or98orMEIEWindowsCDVersion. Anyway, I'm serious, thanks for the info.

You'll have to do a little better to be husband-worthy for Suzieflame--at least find a way to get around NetNanny on the home computer, for starters. I have heard of this before. Now I know, some old dude tried to hook up with a teenage girl on the internet and said the same thing when he was busted "somone spoofed my ip guys. I swear. >> And yes as a normal person I am adamantly against casual and needless >> cross posting. It is extremely hostile, conceited and should be [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > Tommy Joe |
