OK, you convinced me. I've deleted Hot Bar from my computer. What's a BHO ??

And be very aware that Hotbar has been labelled malware by many sites with
removal instructions. I would never touch it in a million years.

Do yourself a favor, download HijackThis! and see how many BHOs you have
installed that can install key loggers, etc.

Nasty piece of software that Hotbar.

After furious head scratching, Jan Groshan asked:

| I don't use Prodigy's news server. My news server is called "SBC News
| Server". (Maybe SBC uses Prodigy's news server!) The "annoying little
| graphic" (which I don't see when download the newsgroup messages)
| could be because I have Hot Bar installed to work with my Outlook
| Express, and since I use Outlook Express to access the news groups,
| Hot Bar automatically attaches a "Play Games for Free - Click Here"
| message to my postings.

| Does Outlook 2007 have the ability to access news group news

|
| No, never has and hopefully never will. You set up your news
| groups in OE or Windows Mail.
|
| And if you're going to use the Microsoft newsgroups regularly, you
| might want to consider connecting directly to msnews.microsoft.com
| rather than Prodidgy's news server, which seems to add a very
| annoying little graphic to
| the bottom of your messages.
