Hi everyone,

I am trying to access the Mozilla newsgroups using a laptop running Win 
NT (company computer).  I created an account for server 
news.mozilla.org, and specified port 119 and no SSL.  When I try to 
receive messages for a mozilla newsgroup, I get an error message saying 
"Could not connect to server news.mozilla.org; the connection was 
refused."  When I changed the account to port 563 and SSL selected, I 
could connect to the newsgroup, but could not receive any messages dated 
after March 2.

I thought this might be a firewall issue, but I have a second computer 
(from which I am writing this note) running Win 2K and plugged into the 
same cable modem.  On the second computer, the Mozilla newsgroup account 
is set up using port 119 and no SSL.  The second computer connects to 
the newsgroup and receives all messages successfully!

Any ideas on what the problem might be with the Win NT laptop?

Thanks very much.

Dom
