The procedure to get this error message to appear is to: 1. In Settings, Configure Knode, Accounts, News; choose Add a server. Provide it with the name of a pingable server, but one that isnt an actual news server, and then click OK. 2. In the list of servers that appears down the left hand side of Knode, right click on the name of the bogus server you just added and choose Subscribe to Newsgroups. It says you dont have any groups and asks if you want fetch a current list. Choose yes, and this is when the dodgy error message pops up. Would it be possible for someone to edit the wording of this error message so it actually makes sense? H
