I think you're either a full-of-s*it troll, the dumbest rock in the field, or you screw around on your husband and may have put yourself in a position to get caught. Whichever it is, go play your games in some other newsgroup please.

You can erase a post from usenet by issuing a cancel message. This is not always the easiest thing to do but your news program may offer the facility. This will ask news servers around the world to delete the post in question. Many will oblige. Some won't. It will eventually dissapear from news servers over time anyway as they only tend to keep posts for a few weeks before they delete them to make way for new articles.

There are also news archives. The best known one is Google. You can delete messages from the Google archive:

Neither of these will wipe the message completely from existence, nor will they make the people that already have your number forget it! But they may help stop your husband from finding out you posted the details to usenet.

PEOPLE!

Please. This is a troll. Same suggestions given over and over just feed it.

Maybe Jonesy wife.

......or change your husband ;~)

In case this isn't a wind-up, just select the offending article's subject line and choose Cancel from somewhere (Special menu in my news client). If you have already marked the article as read, you can use the Search function to retrieve it - or simply delete the newsgroup from your list and retrieve it again from the server.

I do not think it is possible to withdraw a post once sent. But it seems the damage as been done anyway. Take a deep breath and deal with the results I'm afraid.

This may be a computer dialing you in error Ring 1471 to find out the number of the computer and chase it down from that.

To get rid of most *marketing* telephone calls Register your: real name, tel number, snail mail address, with Telephone Preference Service, snipped-for-privacy@dma.org.uk

It works :-)

You can't possibly 'kill' all copies that went to all internet news servers but you might be able to ensure that a permanent copy does not reside on the google/dejanews news servers. Read the google faq for more info on this.

You may be able to cancel a news post on your own ISPs servers but the article is already on thousands of other severs many of which don't accept cancels.

I believe that some (all?) servers will not allow you the option to delete an NG message.

Ignore it - going round all the groups

It's not a real posting

Suspected as much.
