   You could also start by not using an NSP that adds the "NNTP-Posting-   
   Host" header. (Your ISP is on Hayling Island. I'm willing to bet that   
   you are too.)

   I recommend the group 24hoursupport.helpdesk. They know lots about   
   computers, and quite a bit about other stuff, too. *THEY ARE A HELP   
   DESK* (of sorts). They are not necessarily "hackers".

   I have all the anonimity I need. (All the protection from "hacks",   
   too, for that matter.)

   No guarantees even then.
