Apparently they filter out any binary nntp-traffic, regardless of where
it comes from (it says so in their FAQ), and they also filter out large
bandwith-hungry downloads of other specification. Whether this is a lie,
I don't know. The £23 option from plus.net does *not* have these
limitations, however, so I'll be taking that.  I was just trying to make
a tounge-in-cheek remark to John about *not* having access to binary
newsgroup, without daring to drop any less subtle hints about where he
aquires entertainment ;) (Oops, harm done)
