I just spoke to AOL help - seems like AOL only filters IN posters, not out.
Hopeless. Any ideas for a better newsgroup browser? - Dave Plowman was talking
about something - if he could explain how to set it up? Andy

Andy, go to http://www.forteinc.com/main/homepage.php and download
yourself a copy of Free Agent. That has all the filters and killfiles
you could wish for. It also displays threads coherently, which the AOL
reader doesn't

Then find yourself another news provider. When my ISP is giving bad
service I use news.individual.net as I suspect do many here. It
carries no binaries.

As for killfiles, I almost don't use them. And when I do I don't leave
the person in for very long. You can't prevent their posts getting
through as quotes in other posts anyway, so it really isn't worth the
bother.
