     I just tried Netfront. It worked fine, but says I can't post.   
   What would be the point of a newsgroup where you can't post?!   
   I tried to visit the domain, netfront.net. It seems to be a   
   Chinese website.   
      
      Individual.net looks like an option, but it costs me more than   
   $30 to make a bank transfer, I would never use PayPal, and   
   I don't trust the security with either. I'm happy paying a few   
   dollars per year, but I'm not happy giving out payment details   
   online.
