Not a Triumph in sight.

What has obviously happened is that your ISP obvisouly has created the 
Triumph group by himself, or by letting his system obey a forged newgroup 
message. There may even be other ISPs out there carrying this newsgroup. 
But be sure that no ISP which takes their job seriously will carry forged 
big-seven newsgroups, so the newsgroup you are seeing will not be widely 
distributed, if at all.
