Panda stops my posting to Newsgroups

I hate to pester you here... but Panda support hasn't been able to
help. They keep telling me to download Platinum, but fail to
recognize I can only get Titanium. I wonder if the dude is in India
(no offense to Indians).

When Panda runs, no NNTP posting will work. I keep getting a illegal
null character error.

I use Outlook Express... so I tried Mozilla News. Same result with
both. So the program as source of error seems to be ruled out.

When I turn Panda off.. posting works w/both programs. But of course,
I want Panda to remain ON.

Any suggestions??? Until I fix this, I'll have to keep posting through
Google. Google is OK, but often has delays up to nine hours or so.

Clue..? Before I noticed this problem, I ran one of those privacy
programs http://www.xp-antispy.org/ I wonder if this shut off some
background process that the NNTP clients use. Please don't tell me
they need Windows Messenger!

Hmm, very odd. I use Gravity to post to Newsgroups and haven't
encountered any problems with Panda Titaniuam so far.
 
Hi, I have Panda Titanium2004. It has never interfered with posting
to Newsgroups. Try using the repair option. Find the Panda Titanium
Setup.Exe and double click it. It will give you the option to repair
the files. It works for me. charlie R
 
Try turning Panda Off to post (Send All ONLY) and then turn it back on to
receive.
It should be fine, unless you're sending Viruses and you want to block
yourself....
It'll be a pain, but it beats your description of Google.
