Is capt short for Captain? I've got my newsgroup access working now, found your file, but everything is in Jibberish. Why is this. I am new at the newsgroup thing. HEP ME!

LOL. Deep breathe, buddy...

Yes, capt is short for 'Captain'. Its a pirate thing.

The files are *supposed* to be gibberish- the original film was, wasn't it???


Just kidding- What program are you 'reading' the newgroups with? You'll need to decode the files using your newsreader, usually done after tagging the files. I learned the newsgroups on a simple and stable program called Xnews. You can learn all about using it, and download it as well, here:
Slyck's guide to Xnews
Hope this helps. If you can it let me know and we'll find another way.
