I have not checked since then to see if more have been deleted. Well good riddance. I can't imagine why they were kept around this long. It's complete crap that they are removing the entire hierarchy under the guise of child porn. At least be honest if you don't want to carry Alt.binaries.* anymore.

charlie92 join:2005-09-29 Brandon, MS ·AT&T Southeast	"Dennis" has posted (today July 11, 2008) that Bellsouth is working on an official announcement concerning the axing of the alt. heirarcy. I have already switched news providers. It is simply a move under the guise of "pornography" to lower costs for AT&T while removing access to many many more legitimate ng's. I often read and post in alt.anti-virus. Why should it be dumped as part of a so-called "porno crusade?' -- DW7000 Pro - G4R 1110Mhz - DI-604 router - 3 Windows XP PC's - Ethernet CAT5 network
