The code is here: http://web-news.sourceforge.net/

so yes, it's an option, it's open source.

I have this same problem too.  It actually doesn't allow you to go past  
the first page of any newsgroup.

It would be nice if this was fixed, but I have no clue why it would not  
work, since nothing has changed.  I suspect possibly the ever-increasing  
number of posts has started causing timeouts?
