I've been using Newsbin Pro for 11 months without any problem. Today I'm running into the above problem. I upgraded from 6.51 to 6.53 (64bit) but
get the same issue. Windows 8.1.

I've made zero changes to my Newsbin Pro setup. I've made zero changes to my Blocknews account. I checked and it's still active,
with download data available. I've made zero changes to my NewsDemon account (the one named Bills_Server). I checked and it's still
active, with download data available.

From my Blocknews account:

From my NewsDemon account:

I've rechecked my settings on NewsbinPro and it has the correct login/password for each of the two news sources.

I checked my NewsbinPro account and it appears to be active, with a few weeks remaining:

2014 PayPal $30.00

Any suggestions?

1 - It's an error from your server. You need to ask them about it .

[19:11:24] ERROR DG - Connection Failed: Bills_Server Server Index:1 502 Authentication Failed


2 - Looks like a password problem.

Both of these errors are coming from your server. So, you need to ask them why #1 blocked your node and why #2 Doesn't like your password.
