guide download adds edited channels

my tv guide does not retain the memory of the edited channels after guide
update. the same channels keep reappearing and have to be manually edited
every day. i have submitted several guide error reports. the channels are the
new DTV channels for my area which i do not recieve.

directv, albuquerque, zap2it, windows xp mce 2005

channels 883 thru 922 keep updating as new channels which appear after every
guide update.

i have to edit these channels out everyday since the switch......anger is
starting to settle in...lol.

since this problem has never been solved, does someone know how i can change
something in the epg file to solve this?..........and yes i have run the
guide setup and tried to delete lines in the epg log, but cannot see a way
of changing the setup files to fixit.

Do the channels actually exist on D* in your location? If so do they have
to be subscribed to separately with your D* service?

doesn't really matter, i just want them to stay edited out of my program
guide after an update.

hooray! looks as if editing those channels to make them blanks has solved this.
