Uh, they have problems with their SSL it seems. Wouldn't advise using Usenet without ssl/proxy.

Their listed port is 433? Wurd.
Edit: Not sure why they are listing the https ssl port instead of the nntps port!

Reader: reader.xsusenet.com
Port(s): 119, 80, 563(SSL), 443(SSL)
*Download secure via SSL*
XS Usenet allows you to connect to our service using an encrypted connection. For usage of SSL you will need to configure your settings to use ports 563 or 443. For regular connections you may use 80 or 119.
From my activation email, in case it helps.

Edit: Not sure why they are listing the https ssl port instead of the nntps port! https is 443, not 433. They're doing this for users of ISPs that block outgoing access to 119 (nntp) or 563 (nntps) but allow access to secure (https://) websites.

Wonderful these posts in code!
Dunno if others can make sense of it all - I can't

5 Precepts of Buddhism seem appropriate. Refrain from taking life. Refrain from taking that which is not given. Refrain from misconduct. Refrain from lying. Refrain from intoxicants which lead to loss of mindfulness
