Title: Help Please, cant search astraweb
Post by: lynch86 on November 15, 2009, 07:22:54 pm
Hi got sick of virgin cutting me off for using emule and torrents so thought i'd give newsgroups a go ;D

I've signed up for astraweb membership and downloaded and installed alt.binz.

I've followed several of the quick start/muppet guides, I've connected and autheticated to there server.

The problem I'm having is I can't get any search results, if I enter text in the search box and click I get 'error during transfer'?

I'm new to this so not too clued up, I run my pc in a dmz on the router so that hopefully isn't fudging with it.

I've disabled the Windows firewall, anti VIR and Adaware. ( the usual stuff people click when something they dont understand doesn't work ;))

Any help would be greatly appreciated as this newsgroup gig sounds good and I've signed up for a monthly sub!!

Thanks :)

The search engines don't work in 0.25.0, see this thread here:

https://www.altbinz.net/forum/index.php?topic=2485.0

And it isn't possible to search 'Astraweb' as such, only an indexing site.
