I have a giganews account. And it works fine. I have tested the script and everything seemed ok, but now my host tells me having a gateway like mine opens up security issues and they don't want me to run it anymore. Also, the cron job is too much juice.

So, I need a place where they will allow me to do a cron job and that is ok with the gateway.

I can use my giganews account. But if my new host had a newsserver and would save me the GGN fees, I'd sure go for it, but it's not necessary.

thanks
