Is anyone having trouble with the newsgroups (netnews.insightbb.com)? It appears that there are "bursts" of speed (more than the normal 1.5 Mbps) and then it goes down to zero after ever 5 or 10 sec.
Oh crap....I figured it out. Uninstalled and reinstalled my antivirus yesterday. Forgot to tell it to ignore NNTP downloads. Once I changed that, back to normal. Sorry to bother you guys! Not a delete post option.
