I cannot connect to the normal newsgroups (news.ntlworld.com) using Mozilla Thunderbird. I have had no problem from this setup up until last week. When I try to connect a message is returned "connection refused".
Firstly does anyone know why this happening, and secondly are there other free newsgroups I can try instead of NTL.

Re: NTL Newsgroups have gone
There's a thread about it somewhere on here. Apparently there's been a hardware problem with the news servers that they're working on, and it will be a few days before they're back up due to the high amount of data they carry.
