* How does this work? *

This archive contains a local newsserver, which you can access with a newsreader.
If you don't know what that means you can read up on it here: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet

For our purposes lets say that one program has stored all the postings, but you 
need another program to access them.

The newsserver used is Hamster "classic" 2.1.0.11 which is included ready to go. 
If you want it for other uses find it here: 
	http://www.arcorhome.de/newshamster/tgl/misc/hamster_en.html

As newsreader I recommend Seamonkey which you can download here: 
	http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/

Other mail programs also can use the News protocol so pick which you prefer.
(Thunderbird and Outlook can.)

==================================================================================

* How to prepare and access everything *

Step 1: unpack the folder on your harddrive in its own directory
Step 2: run hamster.exe from the subdirectory "Hamster.2.1.0.11" 
	(notice the little icon to the right in your icon tray)
Step 3: download, install and start seamonkey 
		OR 
			start your own mailprogram which can read news.
Step 4: locate the configuration screen of your program.  
	Something like: "Newsgroup settings"

You can see a few screen shots here: 
Seamonkey: http://news.individual.de/configuration/seamonkey-1.1.4-linux-en.php
Thunderbird: https://wiki.engr.illinois.edu/display/tsg/Mozilla+Thunderbird+news+reader+configuration

Step 5: Add an account.
Step 6: Enter were demanded - Newsserver is 'localhost' Port (if asked) is 119, 
	username is 'masf', password is 'masf'. 
	You also need to look out for a few options that say 'never delete messages', 
	since you probably want to keep them. Also 'download headers only' safes 
	you some time in the beginning. 'Load all header', 'don't ask when loading more than 500 headers.'
		Don't worry if you make a mistake. All actions happen in your local newsreader. 
		The archive will still be there.
Step 7: rightclick on the account name, choose "subscribe newsgroups", Download 
	the group lists, select all groups, click "subscribe" (groups might be 
	contained in a thread named 'alt', then 'seduction'. Unfold them as needed.)
Step 8: locate and click the 'get new messages' command (either in a menu, or 
	right-click on the groups) If ask choose "download all headers"
Step 9: Wait a till both programs transfer many many many masf Postings.
Step 10: Click any posting you like and read

Thats it :-)
