I have guests log in via nntp and download messages from all the message bases
once a week and that can be hours of traffic just doing that. I guess some
people love messages. They cannot reply to them but they download all of them
twice a week. My Computer will just ramp up like that out of the blue several
times a day likes it is real busy even when no one is signed in. Ghost users!
