You aren't the only one.

How so? I don't believe Usenet runs on FTP?

Control?.

I don't believe that MS is trying to kill FTP anyway, it's used far to much
to kill, so I won't be worrying about it.

As for FTP, again, if Microsoft are choosing to discontinue their

running XP SP2 RTM).

I bet M$ and the software community at large would love to figure out
how to get rid of Usenet newsgroup support on the Internet in favor
of website forums?

If they do, then I for one will stop posting. So go find someone else to
lecture.

Getting rid of FTP might be a tiny first step in
that direction.
