Thanks for answering so quick. I am going to try it again. The problem I have
is that when I get a list of groups, I don't know what they are. All I get
for titles is: "microsoft.public.wind..." I have to subscribe to each one
first, then when it gets moved to the pane on the left side is when I can see
what they are. Then, if it is something I am not interested in, I unsubscribe
from it. Is that the way it works? Or is there some trick to make it easier.
Thanks

Hi Bruce. I am trying to set up the reader from the site you posted. When
I
type "microsoft.public. windowsxp" on the Newsgroup Subscription window, I
get a list of groups that don't look anything like the list that appears
on
the "Windows XP Newsgroups" where I've been going to normally through IE
or
AOL browser. How do I know which ones to subscribe so I can get the same
ones
I usually use?
Example: Windows XP General, Windows XP basics, Windows Update, Internet
Explorer/Outlook Express etc. etc.
By the way, I am the same poster with edimerq name. I changed it.

Can somebody tell me how to set up Outlook Express so I can access
these
groups from there? I saw a web site about that in another XP
discussionbefore, but I can't find it now. Thanks
