when I type a keyword into the " Display newsgroups which contain: "
search
bar, nothing happens.

That's not what that Search is for. Hint: Try entering "outlookexpress" or
"windowsxp" or "windows.vista" (w/out the quotes).

I'm trying to subscribe to microsoft newsgroups on my backup laptop, but
the
newsgroup subscription service in Outlook Express does not seem to be
working, at least not for me.

After clicking on "msnews.microsoft.com" in the "Folders" pane in OE, and
then on "Newsgroups button", the Newsgroup Subscription window pops up,
but
when I type a keyword into the " Display newsgroups which contain: "

Am I missing out a step in the the procedure ?

Would appreciate any advice.

Thanks
