Re: Inexpensive way to get Worldgroup v1 on internet

I actually have synchronet and I am not that fond of it.  I think that the
way it handles telnet is awsome, but since I am not a programmer I find it
difficult to change menu's around.  Also I have tried to get doors working
and can not.  It may jusy be my computer setup but I tried to get LORD and
TW2002 working and the both crash and will not ever start.  I own a few
modules for WG1 and have had no problem getting them to work at a local
level, so I do not anticipate a problem with them remotely.  Plus I am very
comfortable with WG.  Thanks for the thought though
