After correcting my stupid oversights, the code runs fine up to the point where the user agents are printed. I get an error saying that 'User-Agent' is an unsupported header field. It must have something to do with giganews. If I use aioe.org I don't get the error and the user agents are printed. I don't think it is a problem with the code but any thoughts why giganews is not playing nice? And it is not related to the python group. I have tried on other groups and i get the same error. Here is the complete error message.
