Daniel Brown recommended that if the problem persists, I open a bug report. Here (http://i51.tinypic.com/ix6ntk.jpg) is an image of the timeout message. Here (http://i51.tinypic.com/10dwp09.jpg) is a copy of the config for the news.php.net server Expected result: ---------------- I expect the news reader to fetch a news article from the server. Actual result: -------------- When I try to read an article, 8/10 times I get a message that the news server has times out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52831&edit=1
