Are you 'ignoring' any posts?

OK.
I'm running Windows XP SP2. Ever since I upgraded to SP2, I've a problem
with my OE newsreader.
Very often, (OK, most of the time), the newsgroup will say "NNN messages not
downloaded", and show that number in the blue parentheses next to the
newsgroup name, but no matter how many times I click on the Headers button,
no more messages will download.
I've tried resetting the NG, unsubscribing and re-subscribing, marking all
as read, even creating a new identity but the problem persists. If I
right-click and select "catch up" the number clears until the next time I
click "Headers" then the number reappears, but no additional headers will
download.
I have no filters or views applied except "Hide Read Messages" but even
turning that off makes no difference.
I have more than one USENET provider, and it happens will all of them so
that would tend to rule out an ISP problem.
And one last thing: It only seems to be a problem with Binary groups.
Regular text groups are not affected.
Any thoughts?
