It must be your connection or ISP.
I downloaded 100,00 (approx) groups
in < 3 minutes from the BT server.
 
You are surprised?

Did you think after not fixing OE bugs for years that the same people would

Looks can be deceiving. It still blows as a newsgroup reader, especially for
large newsgroups. Give it some more time, you'll see. I went straight back
to Thunderbird for newsgroups, and I use Outlook for email, anyway. The
underlying code and database structure of WLM has not changed.... and it's
still flawed.

I don't doubt that if Thunderbird 2.0 got it's act together
with respect to...
a) combine and decode and, more importantly,
b) marking crossposts read when read once
I'd be in like Flynn.
