Thanks for prompt reply.  I will uninstall Norton when I have the chance and let you know if this helps.  I turned debugging on in the SABnzbd+ logs and I noticed: 2009-09-07 16:54:34,233::DEBUG::[downloader] 35@news.giganews.com:563 last message -> 200 News.GigaNews.Com 2009-09-07 16:54:34,515::DEB...
